Genus Azarinautilus Korn & Ghaderi, 2025

Type species

Azarinautilus nahidae Korn & Ghaderi, 2025 ; original designation.

Diagnosis

Genus of the family Ocunautilidae fam. nov. with a rather small, subinvolute or subevolute conch; whorl profile lyriform, venter moderately to deeply concave and bordered by raised keels, umbilical margin broadly rounded or subangular. Sculpture with conical nodes or shallow ribs in the midflank area. Suture line with narrow, rounded external lobe and broadly rounded lateral lobe (from Korn & Ghaderi 2025).

Included species

NW Iran ( Korn & Ghaderi 2025): Azarinautilus nahidae Korn & Ghaderi 2025 , Wuchiapingian.

Central Iran (this paper): Azarinautilus phorminx sp. nov., Changhsingian.

Remarks

Azarinautilus has an isolated position within the family Domatoceratidae because of its conch shape and sculpture. A comparably distinctly concave venter has apparently not been described from any other genus of the family; however, species of Fididomatoceras show a flat or slightly concave venter bordered laterally by low ridges.
