This fascinating heteromorph ammonite instantly grabs one's attention with the bizarre 'walking stick' form. An eccentric uncoiling spiral which the Heteromorphs evolved and developed with a great diversity of a radiation period towards the end of the Cretaceous. 

This fossil ammonite resides proudly on one of our elegant bronze mounts with bracketed supports, which not only securely hold the Ancyloceras but enabling the removal of the fossil for closer handling.

Early forms of Jurassic heteromorphs show fewer signs of morphology, particularly in their rapid development, the last coil of the shell separated from the inner wall of the shell. This development became more pronounced towards the end of the Cretaceous. Types were developing complex and convoluted intertwined forms; an informative glimpse back in time to an era of A significant expansion which abruptly ceased in one of the most massive extinctions known to man.
