The present contribution deals with the taxonomy of 11 species of perisphinctoid ammonite recovered recently from the Štramberk Limestone as exposed at the Kotouč Quarry (Štramberk, Moravia). The majority of these are described from this unit for the first time. In the stratigraphic evaluation, finds of ammonites from other localities within the quarry, which were published by us in 2013 and 2014, are included. Ammonites recorded from beyond the continuous section document a stratigraphic range from upper lower Tithonian to lower Berriasian inclusive. In addition to taxonomy and new ontogenetic data of some species, we also present information on the distribution of species recognised and on their palaeogeographic distribution, as well as data on the structural composition of the Homole Block at Kotouč Quarry.
