Ammonoid Embryonic Development

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Ammonoid Paleobiology: From anatomy to ecology

Part of the book series: Topics in Geobiology ((TGBI,volume 43))

Abstract

A great number of new studies have been carried out on ammonoid embryonic development in the last two decades. We focus here on novel developments and interpretations in the description of the embryonic shell (including terminology, shape, size, ornamentation, microstructure, septa, siphuncle and muscle scars), the sequence of embryonic development, reproductive strategy and post-hatching mode of life, followed by conclusions and possible future areas of research.

Acknowledgments

Some of the insights described in this chapter grew during the course of research projects 200021-113956⁄ 1, and 200020-125029 funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation SNF (to KDB). Mikhail A. Rogov (Moscow) and Carlo Romano (Zürich) helped with obtaining some of the literature. Steve Etches (Wareham) kindly put pictures at our disposal. We dedicate this chapter to Susan Klofak for her inspiring work on the embryonic development of Paleozoic ammonoids.
