Type species: Muensteroceras tianshanicum Librovich, 1927: 33, 52 [OD].

[= Muensteroceratoides POPOV, 1965, p.36, type M. aksuensis POPOV, 1965, p.37; OD (subj.)]. [Holotype of type species of Dzhaprakoceras (Akeshakeceras), D. (A.) longilobatum, does not belong to Dzhaprakoceras: for discussion see Riley, 1996, p.51.
=Ouaoufilalites Korn, Bockwinkel, Ebbighausen & Klug, p.  (subj.).

A:   Conch discoidal to pachyconic, rarely cadiconic. No evolute early whorls.
B:   Ornamentation consisting of biconvex growth lines.
D:   Constrictions are common.
G:   Ventral lobe relatively wide, with lyrately bent sides. First lateral saddle rounded. Adventitious lobe big, frequently
larger than ventral lobe and acute. More than ten species. .

[Muensteroceratoides differs in minute details of the shape of ventral lobe and strength of growth striae].

[Popov 1968, p.86: Conch discoid to strongly inflated, almost ball shaped, evolute or semi-evolute in early youth, later
becoming more and more involute.  Constrictions parallel to growth lines.  Ventral lobe moderately deep, with a small,
siphuncular saddle and subparallel, slightly lyre-like bent sides.  First outer saddle widely or moderately rounded, lateral
lobe sharpened, more or less deep; small, angular umbilical lobe placed on the umbilical wall.]

[KUZINA 1980, p.49: Conch of various shape, pachycone to discoidal.  Whorls completely or very involute.  
Umbilicus middle sized to practically closed.  Sculpture of growth lines, which form a ventral and a lateral sinus.  
Constrictions usually lacking.  Ventral lobe thin, with parallel or subparallel sides, convex in the middle; medial saddle
low.  Lateral lobe sometimes exceeds depth of ventral lobe.]
