Conch -- Part II. Ontogeny -- Part III. Anatomy -- Part IV. Habit and habitats.This two-volume work is a testament to the abiding interest and human fascination with ammonites. We offer a new model to explain the morphogenesis of septa and the shell, we explore their habitats by the content of stable isotopes in their shells, we discuss the origin and later evolution of this important clade, and we deliver hypotheses on its demise. The Ammonoidea produced a great number of species that can be used in biostratigraphy and possibly, this is the macrofossil group, which has been used the most for that purpose. Nevertheless, many aspects of their anatomy, mode of life, development or paleobiogeographic distribution are still poorly known. Themes treated are biostratigraphy, paleoecology, paleoenvironment, paleobiogeography, evolution, phylogeny, and ontogeny. Advances such as an explosion of new information about ammonites, new technologies such as isotopic analysis, tomography and virtual paleontology in general, as well as continuous discovery of new fossil finds have given us the opportunity to present a comprehensive and timely "state of the art" compilation. Moreover, it also points the way for future studies to further enhance our understanding of this endlessly fascinating group of organisms.Topics in Geobiology,0275-0120 ;43Paleontology Evolutionary biologyInvertebratesZoologyPaleontologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G39000Evolutionary Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L21001Invertebrateshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25058Zoologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L25007Paleontology .Evolutionary biology.Invertebrates.Zoology.Paleontology.Evolutionary Biology.Invertebrates.Zoology.564.53Klug Christianedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKorn Dieteredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDe Baets Kennethedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKruta Isabelleedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMapes Royal Hedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299425303321Ammonoid Paleobiology: From anatomy to ecology2528636UNINA
