Description

Fossil Identification

This listing presents a double Arnioceras cuneiformis ammonite fossil, identified as Sinemurian and Jurassic. The specimen is associated with HINKLEY POINT SSET, United Kingdom, and forms part of the Alice Purnell Collection. Its named identification makes it a distinctive addition to an ammonite collection, fossil display, geological study area or natural history cabinet.

Arnioceras cuneiformis belongs to the ammonite fossil group. Ammonites were extinct marine cephalopods that lived in the oceans and are commonly recognised through their coiled shell fossils. Their remains are important to palaeontology because ammonites are useful for understanding Jurassic marine environments and for comparing fossil-bearing rocks across different areas. The Sinemurian is an early Jurassic stage, placing this fossil within the early part of the Jurassic Period.

Collector Interest

The double presentation gives this piece visual interest for collectors who enjoy ammonites, Jurassic fossils and named palaeontological specimens. The supplied identification of Arnioceras cuneiformis provides a specific collecting focus rather than a generic ammonite label.
