Their shells were coiled very similarly to the related ''Anaklinoceras'', in that, when young, the shell coiled helically, and then upon reaching adulthood, the shell then bent over the older coils. However, ''Ainoceras'' differed in this respect in that, whereas in ''Anaklinoceras'', the youngest coil wrapped very closely around the older coils, while in ''Ainoceras'', the youngest coil bent over the older coils in a wide loop or oxbow. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ainoceras」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
