REMPC-C0040 Perisphinctes indogermanus Jurassic, Oxfordian Near Sakaraha Tulear Province, Madagascar -
I was in Moab, Utah last week and stopped in at the Moab Rock Shop. They had lots of fossils so I picked up this nice little ammonite about 17 mm diameter for a few dollars. It was labeled as an Orthosphinctes from the Jurassic of the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, but I'm not convinced. I can't find much online about Orthosphinctes but what I do find shows the whorl cross section as being much more oval in shape. I found the thread below from 2014 but it doesn't seem to have answered the poster's original question of Orthosphinctes vs. Perisphinctes. Can anyone help?

I have this ammonite fossil from the genus Perisphinctes, and I would like to know the species. I bought it online from a guy who said it was from a site (which I do not remember) in Madagascar. Can someone help me?

Hi there guys, I got this ammonite as part of a set from Madagascar. I would like to know if this is a Perisphinctes. What caught my attention is that it seems to be more "larger" than the regular Perisphinctes I'm used to, at least. Let me know your thoughts.

Hello, I recently recieved an unidentified ammonite as a present and was told it came from Gotland, Sweden. However, I cannot find any information on ammonite finds from Gotland, and it looks a lot like a Madagascan Perisphinctes to me. Any thoughts? The scale is in centimeters.

This fossil is an Ammonite which I think is Perisphinctes. This fossil came from the santiago formation in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, which is middle Oxfordian.The sanTiago formation is below the Taman formation which is were the Ochetoceras came from. There has been fossil coming out of the formation which are Perisphinctes (Middle Oxfordian ammonite biostratigraphy of the Lower Santiago Formation at Taman, San Luis Potosi, Mexico — with notes on Mexico–Caribbean ochetoceratins) or Bioestratigrafía de amonitas del Oxfordiano medio de la parte basal de la Formación Santiago en Tamán, San Luis Po

Hi Everyone, I purchased this ammonite from a shop in Colorado several years ago. The only identification they provided was that it was an ammonite from Morocco. I believe them because the opening has been cut flat and filled in like ammonites from Morocco typically are. I have tentatively identified it as a Dactylioceras but I'm not sure, another possibility could be Perisphinctes. There also could be other possibilities, too. Since I don't have information on where it was collected, I don't know what age it comes from. I think I read an older post on this forum that the rib
