First record of non-mineralized cephalopod jaws and arm hooks from the latest Cretaceous of Eurytania, Greece
Abstract Due to the lower fossilization potential of chitin, non-mineralized cephalopod jaws and arm hooks are much more rarely preserved as fossils than the calcitic lower jaws of ammonites or the calcitized jaw apparatuses of nautilids. Here, we report such non-mineralized fossil jaws and arm hook...
