Orthocone
Unusually long straight shell of a nautiloid cephalopod
An orthocone is the long, cone-shaped shell belonging to several species of ancient nautiloid cephalopod—the prehistoric ancestors of today's marine cephalopod mollusks, including the cuttlefishes, nautili, octopi and squids. During the 18th and 19th centuries, all such shells discovered were given the "catch-all" name Orthoceras, thus creating a wastebasket taxon. However, it is now known that many species, genera and families of nautiloids developed or retained this form of shell.
