Shantungendoceras

Shungtangenoceras is a conical plectronoceratoid cephalopod from the Upper Cambrian of north-eastern China, described by Sun (1937) as a primitive endoceroid. Because of its apparently poor preservation its ordinal and familial position is uncertain. It could be included in either the Plectronocerida, family Plectronoceratidae, or the Ellesmerocerida, family Ellesmeroceratidae (Flower, 1954). On the other hand, Teichert (1964) included Shungtangendoceras in the Ellesmoerocatidae.
