Hand-finished state-of-the-art Scientific Model in Museum Quality (3D printing), which is equipped with taxidermy eyes. This design is a concept study emphasising form and function. That is why the coating of the models of our Graphic Line is confined to two shades of one colour. The colouration is available in various combinations, see selector above! A painting according to customer’s wishes is also possible as are other sizes. Let us know your personal requests: office@palaeolove.com

Each model is hand-coloured and therefore unique.
Deviations from the product picture(s) are possible.
The model is supplied with an acrylic glass stand.

Habitat: marine, continental slope; demersal, nektonic

This is a monomorph genus of the Ammonoidea. Its species are index fossils of the Anisian and Ladinian ages (Middle Triassic). The ceratitids or «Mesoammonoidea» were Late Permian and Triassic cephalopods with an external shell («Ectocochlea») subdivided into a body chamber and phragmocone with camerae linked by a siphuncle for gas controlled buoyancy regulation. They lived as carnivores in the seas of what is now Europe, Asia, and North America.
