Fig. 3 in Sublethal injuries in Early Devonian cephalopod shells from Morocco

Fig. 3. Limonitic internal moulds of Devonobactrites obliquiseptatum (Sandberger and Sandberger, 1852) with minor healed injuries ("forma substructa" of Hölder, 1973) from the early Zlíchovian (early Emsian, Early Devonian) of the Tafilalt (Morocco). A. PIMUZ 7275, Ouidane Chebbi, note the small triangular fracture. B. PIMUZ 7273, Ouidane Chebbi, irregular insertion of ridges after injury. C. PIMUZ 27032, Oum El Jerane. D. PIMUZ 27033, Oum El Jerane; two injuries. E. MB.C.9545, bed EF, Filon Douze; note the deep fracture which extended over approximately one fourth of the body chamber length; at the posterior end of the fracture, two triangles can be seen as in C, reminding of other cephalopod bite−marks. F. PIMUZ 27034, Oum El Jerane; in this case, the mantle was most likely affected, causing the formation of a linear deformation in growth direction. G. PIMUZ 27040, south of Hassi Tachbit, near Ouidane Chebbi. H. PIMUZ 27035, Oum El Jerane; in contrast to most healed injuries, the apical end of the fracture is broad. I. PIMUZ 27036, Oum El Jerane. J. PIMUZ 27042, El Atrous, note the questionable terminal constriction, possibly indicating adulthood and not a malformation. K. PIMUZ 27037, Oum El Jerane. L. PIMUZ 27041, El Atrous; two injuries. M. PIMUZ 27038, Oum El Jerane. N. PIMUZ 27039, Oum El Jerane; like in F, the mantle was also affected, causing the formation of a linear deformation in growth direction. All specimens were coated with NH4Cl. The arrows indicate healed injuries unless otherwise stated.
