Fossil Sectioned Nautilus | Jurassic Period | UK Origin | Beautifully Preserved Cephalopod | Authentic Fossil Display | Certificate Included

Original price was: £48.00.Current price is: £43.20.

This listing features a beautifully sectioned fossil nautilus from the Jurassic Period, discovered in the United Kingdom. A true window into the marine ecosystems of the Mesozoic Era, this exceptional fossil reveals the inner chambers of a prehistoric cephalopod, preserved in fine detail.

Geological Details:

  • Location: United Kingdom
  • Period: Jurassic (~201.3 to ~145 million years ago)
  • Depositional Environment: Shallow marine shelf or carbonate platform—rich in cephalopods, ammonites, and other marine fauna
  • Preservation: Internal chambers preserved in detail through natural mineral infill, providing a striking display of the shell’s phragmocone

Paleontological Context: Nautiloids are shelled cephalopods related to modern nautilus species. Unlike ammonites, their suture lines are simple and their shells can be either straight or coiled. The sectioned specimen illustrates the gas-filled chambers used for buoyancy control.

  • Class: Cephalopoda
  • Subclass: Nautiloidea
  • Order: Nautilida
  • Family: Likely to fall within Cenoceratidae or related depending on precise morphology (not specified)
  • Biozone/Zone: Not specified due to general locality

Morphological Features:

  • Polished cut to reveal intricate internal septa and chamber partitions
  • Naturally mineralised in earthy and calcitic tones
  • Coiled planispiral form typical of Jurassic nautiloids
  • Diameter shown in image; reference cube = 1cm

Notable Characteristics:

  • Rare sectioned fossil with high aesthetic and scientific value
