An apostrophe without "s" to indicate possesion only occurs in regularly pluralized words, that's it, words that are in plural and are ending in "s" (regular plural: "Soldier/Soldiers"; irregular plural: "Woman/Women"). "Soldiers' weapons" is correct, while "Soldiers's weapons" is wrong.


 * "Nautilus's" is the possesive of a single creature called "Nautilus".
 * "Nautilus' " is the possesive of multiple creatures called "Nautilu", whatever "Nautilu" means...

Therefore, it's never right to say "Nautilus' ", instead opting by "Nautili's" or "Nautiluses' ".
