Genus Alibashites Korn & Ghaderi View in CoL in Korn et al., 2016
Type species
Xenodiscus View in CoL ( Paratirolites View in CoL ?) Mojsisovicsi Stoyanow, 1910, by original designation.
Included species
Alibashites ferdowsii Korn & Ghaderi in Korn et al., 2016; Xenodiscus ( Paratirolites ?) Mojsisovicsi Stoyanow, 1910; Alibashites uncinatus Korn & Ghaderi in Korn et al., 2016.
Diagnosis
Representatives of the family Dzhulfitidae with moderately large to large conch; maximum adult diameters 90 mm. Adult stage with subtrapezoidal or quadrate whorl profile. Subadult stage with large conical ventrolateral nodes, adult stage with weak ribs. Suture line with deep external lobe; depths of external lobe and adventive lobe nearly identical.
Remarks
Alibashites has an intermediate morphological position between Paratirolites and Abichites . It possesses the subadult sculpture with conical ventrolateral nodes of Paratirolites but lacks the trapezoidal whorl profile of that genus. Abichites has a similar adult conch morphology with a rectangular or subtrapezoidal whorl profile but does not possess the strong ventrolateral nodes developed in Alibashites .
