 Pteronautilus, Meek, 1864, Pal. of Up. Mo., 

 p. 64. [Ety. pteron, wing; Nautilus, a 

 genus.] Shell with the involute body 

 portion comparatively very small, and 

 globular in form, scarcely umbilicate ; 

 outer chamber very large, and deflected 

 from the involute body, its inner or 

 ventral side being widely open, and the 

 lateral margins greatly dilated, so as to 

 form a very large, wing-like expansion 

 on each side. Type P. seebachanus.

 tracks might have been made by a spe- 

 cies of Cephalopoda. They consist of 

 two parallel rows of semicircular or 

 subquadrate pits; each pit is about one- 

 half inch in diameter, and separated 

 from the succeeding one by about one- 

 fourth of an inch. Type S. abruptus.
