Product information "Temperoceras sp., Upper Silurian, MAR"

Cephalopod

Temperoceras was an orthocone nautiloid, a squid-like animal with a conical shell.
They were dominant hunters in the Ordovician and Silurian. Their advantage was being able to swim effortlessly in the water column by manipulating their density. The small tube passing through the individual chambers is very important, as it allowed the animal to fill the chambers with gas.
These specimens have been polished so that the calcite-filled interior can be easily recognized.

Age: Upper Silurian
Locality: Atlas Mountains, Morocco
Size: approx. 3-4 cm

Typical squid shell, the chambers are clearly visible and usually also the sipho!Temperoceras, described in some boards as Michelinoceras, was an orthocone nautiloid, i.e. a cephalopod with a straight, chambered shell. It enabled floating in the water column through gas exchange, and locomotion was achieved by expelling water. Michelinoceras is one of the earliest and longest-lived genera of cephalopods (Ordovician to Triassic), and among the first to be found with a radula (the typical rasping tongue of molluscs).Age: DevonianLocality: MoroccoSize: approx. 6 cmColors on product photos may differ from those of the original specimen due to technical reasons.Our photos serve as a reference, you will receive a piece of comparable quality with your purchase.
