Hypoxynoticeras

Hypoxynoticeras is an extinct genus of lower Jurassic ammonite that lived during Jamesoni zone of lower Pliensbachian. Animals belonging to this genus had small platycone shells, of which umbilicus made 25—30% of diameter. Keel was strong and ventrolateral shoulders were prominent. It is possible, that it was just a microconch, or juvenile of Radstockiceras.[1]

gollark: Probably not, but yours relies on the majority of the environment too.
gollark: You know, this is much more complex than osmarkspythonbuildsystem™, and is it even concurrency?
gollark: Obviously dale should assimilate osmarkslisp™, but make it a lazily evaluated purely functional programming language.
gollark: Oh bee oh apioform. Tom Scott CANNOT be incorrect.
gollark: Under the FSG™ system, you have to explicitly register an idea, and when you do so it is erased entirely from everyone else's mind via our nanobot networks.
