Normannites is a strongly ribbed evolute Middle Jurassic genus of ammonite included in the stephanoceratoid family Stephanoceratidae.
Description
Normannites has shells reaching a diameter of . These shells have large lappets, curved plate-like structures that project forward on either side of the aperture. Primary ribs on the inner side of each whorl are large and close spaced, bifurcate about mid flank before continuing over the venter. Secondary ribs, when present, appear about mid flank between primary pairs. Stephanoceras differs in its tendency to develop tubercles at the point of furcation in the primary ribs. Primary ribs, low on the whorls, in Stemmatoceras tend to be narrower and sharper. ==Selected species==
