Description

Chondroceras Ammonite Fossil — Middle Jurassic, Middle Bajocian, Humphriesianum Zone, Midelt, Drâa-Tafilalet, Morocco

Fossil Overview

This listing is for a genuine Chondroceras ammonite fossil from the Middle Bajocian stage of the Middle Jurassic, associated with the Humphriesianum Zone and sourced from the Midelt area of Drâa-Tafilalet, Morocco. The photographs show the exact carefully chosen specimen you will receive. Please study them for the fossil’s natural form, preservation, condition and full measurements.

Jurassic Age and Geological Context

The Bajocian is a subdivision of the Middle Jurassic, an interval when marine life flourished in warm seas. The Humphriesianum Zone is a recognised ammonite biozone within the Middle Bajocian, giving this fossil a useful stratigraphic context for collectors interested in Jurassic geology. The fossil-bearing rocks of Morocco preserve a rich record of marine invertebrates, and ammonites are among the most distinctive and collectable forms recovered from these ancient sediments.

About Chondroceras

Chondroceras is an ammonite genus: an extinct marine cephalopod related to modern nautiluses, squid and octopus. Ammonites produced coiled shells divided into a sequence of internal chambers. As the animal grew, it added new chambers and the shell developed its characteristic spiral. The visible coiling and natural shell detail make each ammonite individual. This specimen is offered as Chondroceras sp., reflecting identification to genus level while retaining its valuable Jurassic and biozonal provenance.

Collector and Display Appeal

A Chondroceras ammonite from the Middle Bajocian makes an engaging addition to a Jurassic fossil collection, geology cabinet, palaeontology display or educational collection. Its Midelt, Morocco locality and Humphriesianum Zone context add interest for collectors who enjoy fossils with meaningful geological detail. It also makes a thoughtful gift for an ammonite enthusiast, a geology student or anyone drawn to the natural history of the Jurassic seas.
