Early Ammonoids

Why thank you Terri! I've been travelling and spending a lot of time in the sea and even set up a marine aquarium, but decided not to keep cephalopods in there. It will soon be cool enough to go out into the field here and I'll be back looking at the rocks.
 
Your welcome, we have had 100+ heat indexes for most of this summer with a lot of rain, which has caused the undergrowth to go wild. Even if I could handle the heat I would have to use a machete to even find an outcrop. But on the bright side the weather is starting to cool off here also!
 
Here's a pile of Devonian ammonoids from Morocco thrown together on my desk. There's Erbenoceras (13 cm at back), Platyclymenia, Gonioclymenia, Cosmoclymenia, Gyroceratites, Agoniatites, Sellanarcestes, Protornoceras, and Acrimenoceras.
