OK, admittedly this has nothing really to do with ammonites, but it is interesting anyway:

I sure would like to see the ammonite pictures that guy took... even a picture of the bug would be nice. :smile:

What a great find! Really reminds us how little we know about the natrual world...
And the "whole shells protruding out of rock" sounds really really fascinating too.

Troglobite 8-)

Would the ammonites be Troglonites or Trogloceras?

Thanks Phil :grin:
