Abstract
The largely Kimmeridgian-Tithonian (Late Jurassic) aptychus Lamellaptychusrectecostatus (Peters, 1854) is considered to represent the jaw apparatus of the ammonite superfamily Haploceratoidea (Family Oppeliidae). However, here, from the Ogrodzieniec quarry (southern Poland), we present its unusual allochthonous occurrence embedded in a perisphinctid, Perisphinctes (Kranosphinctes) sp., and co-occurring with a late early Oxfordian Cordatum Subzone (Cordatum Zone) ammonite assemblage. The assemblage includes Cardioceras (Cardioceras) cf. cordatum (Sowerby), Neocampylites delmontanus (Oppel), Lissoceratoides erato (d’Orbigny), Bukowskites distortus (Bukowski), Trimarginites cf. arolicus (Oppel), Glochiceras sp., Holcophylloceras zignodianum (d’Orbigny) and Euaspidoceras (Euaspidoceras) perarmatum (Sowerby).
