Amoebopeltoceras sp. fossil ammonite – middle oxfordian, jurassic – tulear, madagascar – genuine certified specimen – actual fossil shown

£14.40

Available here is a beautifully preserved Amoebopeltoceras sp. fossil ammonite, dating to the Middle Oxfordian stage of the Jurassic Period (~163 to 157 million years ago). This exceptional specimen originates from Tulear, Madagascar, a globally renowned locality for ammonite preservation and diversity.

Amoebopeltoceras is an extinct genus of ammonite within the family Perisphinctidae, characterised by its evolute shell structure and fine ribbing patterns. These marine molluscs were free-swimming predators that inhabited the warm, shallow seas of the Mesozoic era, evolving to fill numerous ecological niches in Jurassic oceans.

The specimen on offer has been carefully selected for its excellent condition and detail. It comes from fossil-rich strata that provide a window into life in the Jurassic seas. A 1cm scale cube in the photo shows the full sizing, and the fossil shown is the exact piece you will receive. It also includes a Certificate of Authenticity.

Jurassic Information

The Jurassic Period (201–145 million years ago) was the golden age of dinosaurs, with iconic species like Brachiosaurus, Stegosaurus, and Allosaurus dominating the land. It was a time of warm, humid climates, with high sea levels that created vast shallow seas, supporting abundant marine reptiles, ammonites, and early coral reefs. The first birds, such as Archaeopteryx, evolved from small theropod dinosaurs, while early mammals remained small and nocturnal. Lush forests of cycads, conifers, and ferns covered the land, providing food for giant herbivores. The breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea accelerated, shaping Earth's geography and setting the stage for the diverse ecosystems of the Cretaceous.
