Peroniceras telmachi Fossil Ammonite Jurassic Toarcian St Paul des Fortes France

Peroniceras telmachi Fossil Ammonite Jurassic Toarcian St Paul des Fortes France

£15.12

An excellent and genuine fossil ammonite of the species Peroniceras telmachi, collected from the Toarcian stage of the Lower Jurassic at St Paul des Fortes, Aveyron, France. This striking fossil displays the well-defined coiling and fine ribbing characteristic of this genus.

Peroniceras telmachi is an extinct ammonite species from the order Ammonitida, class Cephalopoda, and subclass Ammonoidea. Ammonites from this time period were free-swimming marine molluscs with planispiral shells, typically used in biostratigraphy as index fossils.

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.
