AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The ammonites are marine mollusks characterized by their spiral shell and their ability to reproduce by unfolding. Apophyses are projections that can be present on certain species of ammonites, such as Kosmoceras. These apophyses can help identify species, as they vary among individuals. For example, jugal apophyses can be a distinctive indicator of the Callovian of Charente, a very rare and very beautiful species on a homemade stand
