}}Parapuzosia is an extinct genus of desmoceratid ammonites from the Cenomanian to the Campanian of Africa, Europe, and North America.[2] They are typically very large ammonites, reaching diameters of {{convert|60|cm|ft|abbr=on}} or more, with the largest species measuring upwards of more than {{convert|3|m|ft|abbr=on}}.[3] It possesses a moderately involute shell with flat or slightly rounded sides. Distinct primary and secondary ribbing can be observed in the inner whorls.[4]

Naming

The origin of the generic name Parapuzosia ("similar to Puzosia") comes from the smaller, related desmatoceratid Puzosia. "Puzosia" comes from the Serbian words "пужа/Puzo" (Snail) and "Oca/Osia" (Axis), translating to "snail axis".{{citation needed|date=February 2016}}
