Capricornites is a genus of rutoceratids (Nautiloidea - Cephalopoda) from the Devonian, related to such genera as Rutoceras and Goldringia.

In some taxonomies (Manda & Turek, 2009) the Rutoceratidae are included in the Oncocerida rather than in the Nautilida

The name has been mis-spelt as Capriocornites in some tabulations.
