mediterranic Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hello guys, does anyone knows the species of this ammonite from the Moroccan Anti-Atlas? Thanks in advance, Miguel My Academia.edu profile - My About Me page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediterranic Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Some devonian bivalves on the back might help: My Academia.edu profile - My About Me page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 A goniatite, but I can't say anything more than that. 2 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izak_ Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Yep, a goniatite. No ammonites in the Devonian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 And your bivalve is a brachiopod imprint. Probably a member of the Spiriferidae. 2 Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can say for sure that there are none. The ones you're referring to a likely nautiloids like goniatites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Without a lateral view and evidence of chambers this could be a gastropod... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 If it is a goniatite, then it could be Clymenia, but westcoast is correct to suggest that it may also be a gastropod. I also see no evidence of the typical septal lobes in these photos. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediterranic Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 @Ludwigia @westcoast I prepared it myself and, in fact, I don't see any evidence of chambers/ septal lobes. Attached a lateral view. My Academia.edu profile - My About Me page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
