Ctenobactrites is an extinct genus of cephalopods that lived from the Carboniferous to the Permian. It contains seven valid species which have been found in Europe, Asia, and North America.[9] It was originally assigned to the order Bactritida,[1] but has been proposed to be a potential member of the order Mixosiphonata.[10]
