Ontogenetic Trends of Sutural Complexity in Jurassic Ammonites

Ontogenetic Trends of Sutural Complexity in Jurassic Ammonites

Ontogenetic sequencing of suture fractal dimensions from a single ammonite specimen was not previously accessible without extreme measures. The necessity for destruction of the full conch due to whorl overlap or, alternatively, the prohibitively expensive or inaccessible imaging equipment for use by...
