Happy Christmas and Holiday.
Where can I find the descriptions of some species of ammonites ?
Such as the following:
Lytoceras amplum, oppelia flexa, pleydellia miseri, sonninia adicra, pelekodites moisyi, Grantia garantiana, parkinsonia parkinsoni, ...
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
I suggest you start with the works by Rudolf Schlegelmilch. He published three volumes on Jurassic ammonites from Germany. This can give you a first idea:
Die Ammoniten des süddeutschen Malms. G. Fischer, Stuttgart 1994.
Die Ammoniten des süddeutschen Lias. G. Fischer, Stuttgart 1976.
Die Ammoniten des süddeutschen Doggers. G. Fischer, 1985.
Afterwards, you can go into detail by looking for more special publications on Jurassic ammonites by people like Callomon, Dietl, Schweigert, etc.
Good luck,
Christian.
The many publications of Louis Rulleau (Section Géologique-Paléontologique du C.E. Ciments Lafarge France usine du Val D'Azergues) can also be quite helpful. Here is a link:

This link will also lead you to some good publications over ammonites:
