They resemble the Ammonites in internal structure, but instead of being spirally convolute they are merely curved like a horn.
The dorsal part of a symmetrical convolute univalve, such as the Nautilus and Ammonite is that part of the whorls which is at the greatest distance from the spire, that is, the outer part of the whorls.
