Natural fossil ammonites from the Cretaceous period: Cleoniceras

The Cleoniceras ammonites from the Lower Cretaceous, found in the rocks of Madagascar, transport us back in time. These Albian fossils are of crucial importance for scientists who want to understand the evolution of ammonites and the paleogeography of the ancient ocean. Their natural beauty also makes them objects of great collector interest. The fossil ammonites of Cleoniceras, with their unique shapes and decorative ribbing, are the perfect choice for anyone aiming to create an environment that unites antiquity and modernity. These fossils are ideal for architects and interior designers who want to give their projects a historical charm. Cleoniceras belong to the suborder Ammonitina and are one of the best-known and most studied ammonites in the fossil record. Their shell is compact and coiled, with characteristic ribs that develop regularly. These fossils serve as a reference point for dating sedimentary rocks from the Cretaceous and contribute to our understanding of marine biodiversity of that era.
