Description: | Androgynoceras maculatum was an ammonite that lived during the early Jurassic, approximately 190 million years ago. Ammonites were sea creatures that looked a bit like the modern nautilus that lives in the Pacific Ocean. Like Nautilus, they had tentacles, and a coiled shell. Ammonites were probably eaten by large marine reptiles such as the dolphin-like ichthyosaur that died out 65 million years ago, the same time as the dinosaurs. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | fossils natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
