  • Cameroceras was a large orthocone from the Ordovician. It was the largest animal to have ever existed during that time.
  • The partial shell of one giant Cameroceras yielded a total length estimated at the time at nearly 30 feet (9 m). This estimate has since been revised downward quite a bit;[2] Frey (1995) gives a length of up to 6 m.[3] Regardless of this estimate's degree of accuracy, this gargantuan cephalopod is thought to be among the largest known Paleozoic mollusks.
  • Cameroceras vient du grec : « kamara » pour chambre et « ceras » pour corne qui indiquent la forme de « corne cloisonnée en chambres » de la coquille de l'animal.
  • Cameroceras was a giant, squid like animal that lived in the sea and was the top preadator of it's time and dominated the deep oceans.
