Diagnosis
Tornoceras reaching about 90 mm conch diameter. Thickly pachyconic, subevolute early juvenile stage (ww/dm ~ 0.80; uw/dm ~ 0.35 at 2 mm dm), thickly discoidal and involute subadult stage (ww/ dm ~ 0.58; uw/dm ~ 0.08 at 10 mm dm), thinly discoidal and involute adult stage (ww/dm ~ 0.42; umbilicus closed at 30 mm dm). Whorl profile as wide as high in the subadult stage (ww/wh ~ 1.00 at 10 mm dm) and strongly compressed in the adult stage (ww/wh ~ 0.75 at 30 mm dm); whorl expansion rate very high in the subadult and adult stage (WER = 2.30-2.45). Flanks convex, convergent, umbilical margin continuously rounded. Without any ventrolateral grooves. Suture line with broadly rounded, asymmetric adventive lobe and high ventrolateral saddle.
Type material
Lectotype GERMANY • Rhenish Mountains, Oberscheld ; probably middle Frasnian (Adorf Limestone); designated by Becker (1993); figured by Sandberger & Sandberger (1850 –1856: pl. 10 fig. 14), Becker (1993: pl. 3 figs 1–3) and Korn (2021b: text-fig. 2), re-illustrated here in Fig. 4 View Fig ; specimen 53a; Wiesbaden Museum .

Description
Lectotype 53a (Wiesbaden Museum)
Fairly well-preserved specimen with 46 mm conch diameter in red limestone; it is largely chambered and the last half volution belongs to the body chamber ( Fig. 4 View Fig ). It is a thinly discoidal conch (ww/ dm = 0.40) with a closed umbilicus. The body chamber is obviously slightly distorted, resulting in a stronger convergence of the flanks (as shown in the original illustration by Sandberger & Sandberger 1850 –1856). Parts of the specimen are covered by shell material, which, however, is not well preserved and does not allow a detailed examination of the ornamentation. The suture line has a small, V-shaped outer lobe and a broadly rounded ventrolateral saddle. The adventitious lobe is twice as deep as the outer lobe and as deep as it is wide; it is broadly rounded and slightly asymmetric.
Remarks
The species has been discussed several times in the literature. A detailed revision and discussion was carried out by Korn (2021b); in this paper both the taxonomic problems and the conch morphology as well as the ontogenetic development are presented on the basis of further material from the Rhenish Mountains.
