This is a genuine 4-inch PASSALOTEUTHIS APICURVATUSa belemnite fossil from the Lower Sinemurian stage of the Jurassic period, discovered in Lyme Regis, United Kingdom. Belemnites were extinct marine cephalopods related to modern squid and cuttlefish. Unlike ammonites, belemnites had an internal shell called a guard, which fossilised over millions of years, making them a key component of Jurassic marine deposits.

This well-preserved specimen showcases its characteristic elongated, bullet-shaped guard, with visible structural details. Lyme Regis is one of the most famous fossil sites in the world, known for producing high-quality Jurassic marine fossils. Belemnite fossils like this offer valuable insights into prehistoric marine ecosystems.

Jurassic Information

The Jurassic Period (201–145 million years ago) was the golden age of dinosaurs, with iconic species like Brachiosaurus, Stegosaurus, and Allosaurus dominating the land. It was a time of warm, humid climates, with high sea levels that created vast shallow seas, supporting abundant marine reptiles, ammonites, and early coral reefs. The first birds, such as Archaeopteryx, evolved from small theropod dinosaurs, while early mammals remained small and nocturnal. Lush forests of cycads, conifers, and ferns covered the land, providing food for giant herbivores. The breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea accelerated, shaping Earth's geography and setting the stage for the diverse ecosystems of the Cretaceous.
