2.9" Early Devonian Ammonoid (Anetoceras) - Tazarine, Morocco
This is a 2.9" wide, Early Devonian ammonoid cephalopod (Anetoceras) collected near Tazarine, Morocco. The ammonites have been painstakingly prepared to expose it from the hard limestone that it was found in. The base of the rock has been cut flat so that it stands up nicely without the need for a display stand.
About Anetoceras
Anetoceras is an early ammonoid cephalopod, first named by O.H. Schindewolf in 1934, that lived in the latter part of the Early Devonian period. It is distinguished by its loosely coiled, prominently ribbed shell, with the coiling occurring in a single plane so that the whorls are close together but do not touch. The shell’s ribs are narrow and widely spaced, adding to its distinct appearance and making it an important specimen for understanding early ammonoid evolution.
