EDITORS COMMENTS
This fossil print showcases the exquisite details of a Prolecanites compressus goniatite, a type of ancient marine mollusk belonging to the subclass Cephalopoda and the class Ammonoidea. This invertebrate, specifically a goniatite ammonoid, lived during the Late Devonian to Early Carboniferous period, around 385 to 354 million years ago. The Prolecanites compressus is characterized by its distinctive, flattened, and tightly coiled shell, which is visible in this meticulously preserved specimen. The shell's shape is reminiscent of a spiral horn, with each whorl displaying a series of fine, beaded ribs that add to its intricate appearance. The ribs become more pronounced towards the outer edges of the shell, creating a striking contrast against the smoother inner surface. The goniatites, including Prolecanites compressus, are an essential part of the fossil record, providing valuable insights into the evolution of the cephalopods. They represent a transitional stage between the more primitive nautiloids and the more complex ammonoids, which dominated the seas for millions of years. This fossil print, captured by the skilled lens of Beatriz Aguirre Urreta, invites us to marvel at the beauty and complexity of life that existed long before our time. The intricate patterns and delicate details of the Prolecanites compressus goniatite serve as a testament to the rich history of the natural world and the wonders that lie hidden within the Earth's crust.
