Maorites ammonite fossil C013 / 6619
Maorites densicostatus ammonite fossil. Ammonites were marine invertebrates. They first appeared in the fossil record around 400 million years ago in the late Silurian and early Devonian periods and became extinct at the end of the Cretaceous period, 65 million years ago. Ammonites are index fossils, their presence allows the rock layer in which they are found to be dated to specific geological time periods. This specimen dates from the Lower to Middle Campanian of the Upper Cretaceous, and was found on Vega Island, Graham Land, Antarctica

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable Maorites ammonite fossil, a relic from the ancient seas that once covered our planet. Ammonites were fascinating marine invertebrates that existed for millions of years before meeting their demise at the end of the Cretaceous period. As index fossils, these creatures play a crucial role in dating rock layers and determining specific geological time periods. The featured specimen, known as Maorites densicostatus, hails from Vega Island in Graham Land, Antarctica. Its preservation is truly extraordinary, with its ribbed shell beautifully fossilized and frozen in time. Against a vibrant green background, this cut-out image highlights every intricate detail of this prehistoric cephalopod. As we gaze upon this stone-like treasure, we are transported back to an era when these magnificent creatures roamed the oceans. The Maorites ammonite serves as a testament to Earth's rich history and reminds us of the incredible diversity that has evolved over millions of years. Displayed by London's Natural History Museum, this photograph not only captures the awe-inspiring beauty of nature but also serves as a valuable resource for scientists studying paleontology and marine biology.
