Description
Eteoderoceras Golden Pyrite Ammonite Fossil
A distinctive fossil specimen identified as Eteoderoceras, presented with golden pyrite colouring and associated with the Black Ven Marls of the Lower Lias. This ammonite comes from the Jurassic Coast at Stonebarrow Cliff near Charmouth, Lyme Regis, Dorset, UK, an area renowned for its rich and scientifically important fossil heritage.
Geological Setting
The Black Ven Marls form part of the Lower Lias, a Jurassic geological succession exposed along the Dorset coast. The Jurassic Coast is internationally recognised for its sequence of coastal rock exposures and fossil-bearing strata, making material from this region especially appealing to collectors, geology students and anyone interested in Earth history.
The location given for this specimen is Stonebarrow Cliff, Charmouth, within the Lyme Regis area of Dorset. Black Ven is one of the best-known fossil localities on the Jurassic Coast, and the Lower Lias provides an important record of Jurassic marine life. The geological setting gives this ammonite a strong connection to one of Britain’s most celebrated fossil-producing regions.
Fossil Identification
Eteoderoceras is an ammonite name associated with the Jurassic fossil record. Ammonites were extinct marine cephalopods with coiled shells, and their fossils are widely valued for their scientific importance, recognisable form and role in understanding ancient marine environments. Their succession through geological strata also makes ammonites important to palaeontology and biostratigraphic study.
This specimen is described as a Golden Pyrite Ammonite Fossil, combining the named ammonite identification with the visually striking pyrite association stated in the product name. It is suitable for a fossil display, geological collection, educational cabinet or decorative natural-history presentation.
