Lehmann, U. & Kulicki, C. 1990 10 15: Double function of aptychi (Ammonoidea) as jaw elements and opercula. Lethaia , Vol. 23, pp. 325–331. Oslo. ISSN 0024–1164.
Aptychi are calcitic coverings on the outer surface of organic ammonite lower jaws. They are similar in shape to that of the corresponding ammonite apertures. This observation and additional features of many aptychi are in harmony with their former interpretation as protective opercula. We suggest that they served as opercula in addition to functioning as jaws. The primary function of the lower jaws was thus secondarily extended to that of protective shields when they acquired their calcitic covering, while as lower jaws their importance dwindled to that of a more passive abutment. Phylogenetically, this seems to have started slowly in some anaptychi and became obvious with the first aptychi. ▭ Ammonites, aptychus, operculum, jaw apparatus, evolution, function . 相似文献
