Wayne Braunberger, Ammonites
Ammonoid cephalopods, generally referred to as “ammonites” are one of the most common fossils found in marine sediments deposited within the Western Interior Basin of North America during the Mesozoic. A prolific and diverse group, ammonites are extremely valuable in biostratigraphic and paleogeographic studies because of the many morphological features they exhibit, their rapid evolution and the widespread distribution.
Additional topics include:
• What is an ammonite?
