Pseudosonneratia iridescent fossil ammonite with mother of pearl shell – lower albian, cretaceous – madagascar – certified authentic fossil

Description

This listing offers a magnificent Pseudosonneratia fossil ammonite featuring breathtaking natural iridescence preserved from its original mother of pearl shell layer. This fossil dates to the Lower Albian stage of the Early Cretaceous Period, approximately 113 to 100 million years ago, and comes from Madagascar, renowned for its beautifully preserved fossil ammonites.

Pseudosonneratia is a genus of extinct ammonites known for their robust shells and well-developed suture lines. These fast-swimming marine cephalopods lived in the warm Cretaceous seas, preying on small fish and other marine creatures. Their shells, composed largely of aragonite, sometimes preserved a stunning nacreous (mother-of-pearl) layer, which creates the vivid, iridescent rainbow colours seen in this specimen.
