单词 ceratite
释义

ceratite

/ˈsɛrətʌɪt / /ˈsɪərətʌɪt/
noun
An ammonoid fossil of an intermediate type found chiefly in the Permian and Triassic periods, typically with partly frilled and partly lobed suture lines. Compare with ammonite and goniatite.
  • Typified by the genus Ceratites, order Ceratida.
The suture lines of ceratites are less complex, and those of goniatites even less so than ceratites....
  • Consequently, sutural nomenclature of Permian ceratites and Mesozoic ammonoids has to be modified.
  • At last tracking structures indicate different viscoelastical properties of the septal mantle in goniatites, ceratites and ammonites.

Origin

Mid 19th century: from modern Latin Ceratites (from Greek keras, kerat- 'horn') + -ite1.
