3.6" Androgynoceras Ammonite Fossil - England
This is a 3.6" wide Androgynoceras ammonite fossil from the Lyme Regis region of England. The base of the matrix has been cut flat so that it stands up nicely without the need for a display stand.
Ammonites were predatory cephalopod mollusks that resembled squids with spiral shells. They are more closely related to living octopuses, though their shells resemble that of nautilus species. True ammonites appeared in the fossil record about 240 million years ago during the Triassic Period. The last lineages disappeared 65 million years ago at the end of the Cretaceous.
