Hecticoceratinae is a subfamily of oppeliids from the Middle and Upper Jurassic typically with strong falcoid or falcate ribbing that covers whorl sides completely. Venters are usually keeled and may be tricarinate.Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology Part L, L276 (Ammonoidea)

The Hecticocerainae, which has its origin in the Oppeliinae, give rise to the Distichoceratinae near the beginning of the Middle Jurassic Callovian, and to the Glochiceratinae early in the Upper Jurassic Oxfordian.Classification of Jurassic Ammonitina, D.T. Donovan, et al., Systematics Assoc., 1981 Neither apparently gave rise to any subsequent groups.
