A morphometric approach to conch ontogeny of <i>Cymaclymenia</i> and related genera (Ammonoidea, Late Devonian)

Representatives of the Late Devonian ammonoid family Cymaclymeniidae were studied for their conch ontogeny. Two methods were applied: (1) the analysis of classical morphometric conch parameters and (2) an outline analysis of the aperture using elliptic Fourier analysis. Application of both methods l...
