Paper reports the presence of the genus Worthoceras Adkins from the Utatur Group, Cretaceous deposits of Tiruchchirapalli, Tamil Nadu. The genus is represented by three species, viz., Worthoceras vermiculian, W. gibbosum and Worthoceras sp. aff. W. rochatianum. History and phylogenetic position of the genus is discussed in detail. Authors following Henderson (1973), place the Wortoceros species under the family Scaphitidae and consider the genus Otoscaphites Wright as an evolutionary form in the lineage Eoscaphites-Scophites.
