subclass Ammonoidea. Most of Madagascar ammonites are Cleoniceras and we are

ammonites – red fire ammonites. Sizes can be from few millimetres up to dozens
of centimeters. Colours are mostly shade of brown and yellow,sometimes you will
see almost white or black specimens, sometimes rainbow iridescent. We can offer
many beautifull unique specimens from our stocks with hope, that you get a right
