Analysis of septal spacing and septal crowding in Devonian and Carboniferous ammonoids
Septal crowding is widely known as a sign of maturity in conchs of ammonoids and nautiloids. However, reduced septal spacing may also occur as a consequence of adverse ecological conditions. Here, we address the question how septal spacing varied through

Ontogeny and covariation in the Toarcian genus Osperleioceras (Ammonoidea) [PDF]
Abstract Starting from embryonic (protoconch-ammonitella) and early juvenile shells, which are indistinguishable at the species level, growth curves of Osperleioceras from the Reynesi Subzone (Upper Toarcian) of the Causses Basin (Aveyron, France) show a continuous radiating range of correlated variation in dimensional and ornamental ...
