Abstract

ABSTRACT We describe a new species of scaphitid ammonite from the Upper Cretaceous (lower Maastrichtian) of North America. Hoploscaphites sargklofak, n. sp., is endemic to the U.S. Western Interior, but closely resembles H. constrictus Sowerby, 1817, from the Maastrichtian of northern Europe.
