Coming from the Lower Triassic in Elko County, Nevada, this is a fine assemblage of two different ammonite species, both rarely available. These ammonites swam the Panthalassa Ocean east of the continental landmass, soon after the great Permian extinction, after which most species met extinction. The continental areas of the world during Triassic time were still united into a single landmass called Pangaea.
