Genus Zhuravlevia Doguzhaeva, 1994
Diagnosis: Small orthocone with circular cross section, siphuncle central with short suborthochoanitic septal necks and slightly expanded siphuncular segments, septal spacing relatively wide, cameral and endosiphuncular deposits unknown.
Type species: Zhuravlevia insperata Doguzhaeva, 1994
Included species: Only the type species.
Remarks: Zhuravlevia resembles Pseudotemperoceras but differs mainly in its more widely spaced septa. Its isolated occurrence after a hiatus of about 90 million years is curious and needs to be confirmed by additional material to exclude it as a result of reworking. Nevertheless, the genus is similar to other trematoceratids and likely belongs to the same lineage.
Occurrence: Caucasus; Cretaceous (Aptian).
