Ammonoid Suture Complexity

Ammonoid Suture Complexity is a paleontological morphometric construct that quantifies the degree of folding and fractal-like elaboration in the septal sutures of ammonoid cephalopods, serving as an index for phylogenetic, paleoecological, and evolutionary inference within their fossil record.
