He was a Swiss geologist of the 19th century who lived in Portugal and became THE pioneering specialist for Portugese paleontology and geology. There is also a typical Moroccan ammonite called Choffaticeras.

There is a European haramyid (early mammal) named Paulchoffatia, and now you show us this Choffatia ammonite.  How did one guy (I am assuming they have the same namesake) get a mammal AND an ammonite named after him?  Who is Paul Choffat?  I know, I could google it, but that's no fun.

I have been reading prepping threads in the forum and wish I had come across this sooner. Will be getting geared up with a scribe and fortunately have most of the needed support equipment in my shop where I work on my one of my other hobby’s  of aircraft building. My goal is to recover another ammonite once the snow melts from the mountains where I go hiking, preparing and identify it this summer with some posts to show my trip.

I have set a goal for myself with the next find to prepare, learn the scientific  name and share pictures of trip. Wishing I had found this group a while ago. Thanks.

Sounds good. Looking forward to that.

I really like TFF because there is always someone who can give us a little more information. This time it was my turn :beer:.

 

And thanks to Roger for the pictures of a beautiful example of Choffatia.:tiphat:
