This #FossilFriday, behold the dazzling colors of an iridescent ammonite. Over millions of years, high temperatures & pressures turned its shell to a gemstone called ammolite. Along with amber & pearl, this gem is one of only a few made by living organisms.

Happy St Keyne’s Day!

There are various legends associated with dragons and serpents in Somerset. The legendary St Keyne is said to have turned snakes to stone in Keynsham. This was a way of explaining the ammonites found in the area and Keyne may have lent her name to the town.

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

Here's a closer look at the school of Caproberyx around a Tylosaurus skeleton, from the fish half of my large Western Interior Seaway mural (2021) for Children's Museum of Indianapolis, USA. Also featured are a Xiphactinus, Apsopelix, and a variety of ammonites.

Where Have All the #Ammonites Gone? https://hakaimagazine.com/news/where-have-all-the-ammonites-gone/ by Riley Black (2020)

Dr. Kathleen Ritterbush: "Modern #squid and their relatives have obscene boom-bust cycles on seasonal, annual, and decadal timescales... no one knows what causes these fluxes... We can’t say what they’re going to do next Tuesday... It’s possible that ammonites also followed such volatile cycles. If the #asteroid struck during an #ammonite bust, you could tank the smallest ammonite population on their worst day"

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

In 2020 I illustrated LOCKED IN TIME, written by Dr Dean Lomax. Here's my "Transient Oasis" painting, depicting animals in and around a colony of crinoids growing on driftwood.

#FossilFriday. Ammonites, each about 75 mm across, from the lower or grey chalk formations of the Cretaceous. At left is Schloenbachia and right, Mantelliceras. Age about 85 million years. #Fossils #Ammonites

This is a fossil of two ammonites from the Jurassic period (201-145 million years ago) that I dug up in BC near Harrison Lake. Ammonites were sea creatures with shells ranging from a few millimetres to two metres across! They resembled squid living in a giant snail shell, similar to the still living nautilus... but only their shells remain.

I love this fossil because the shells look like roiling sea monsters emerging from the depths.

Lots of cool finds at Canyon Creek near #yyc today! Some ammonites, corals, plant fragments, and a whole rock of crinoid fragments!
