Dactylioceras was a widespread genus of ammonites from the Lower Jurassic period,[1] approximately 180 million years ago (mya).[2] and Like many other ammonites, the genus Dactylioceras is extremely important in biostratigraphy, being a key index fossil for identifying their region of the Jurassic. It had a nearly cosmopolitan distribution during the time it existed.
