#722 Madagascar Cretaceous Ammonite DouvilleicerasThis is an ammonite of the species Douvilleiceras mamillatum from Mahajanga, Madagascar. This fossil is from the Cretaceous Period about 100 million years ago. This fossil has some of the original shell intact. This fossil is totally natural. This fossil measures about 3 3/4 x 3 x 1 3/4 inches or 95 x 76 x 44 mm. When alive, ammonites resembled an octopus in a shell. The chambers had a tube running through them that allowed liquid to be removed as the shell grew larger, so the animal could maintain buoyancy in the water.*

#701 Cleoniceras Ammonite3 1/4" across. From Madagascar. Ammonites are basically an octopus that lived in a shell. They are commonly confused with a nautilus. A nautilus has dozen’s of arms but an ammonite only had 8. They first appeared on earth about 400 mya years ago and died out 65 mya (the same time as dinosaurs). The shell has three layers, an outside dull white to reddish brown layer, below that is a mother of pearl (outer nacreous layer) and below that is the suture layer (inner nacreous layer) which has a lot of squiggly lines which helps to identify the ammonite.*
