PARKINSONIA CONVERGENS Fossil Ammonite – Zigzag Zone, Bajocian, Jurassic – Burstock Lane, Broadwindsor, Dorset, UK

About the Fossil:

This exceptionally preserved Parkinsonia convergens ammonite fossil originates from the Zigzag Zone, Convergens Subzone of the Bajocian stage (~170 million years ago) of the Middle Jurassic and was discovered in Burstock Lane, Broadwindsor, Dorset, United Kingdom. Parkinsonia is a genus of evolute ammonites, characterized by its strong ribbing, well-defined whorls, and distinctive suture patterns, making it a desirable fossil for collectors and researchers.

During the Middle Jurassic, ammonites like Parkinsonia convergens thrived in warm, shallow marine environments, where they were active swimmers, preying on small marine organisms. The Zigzag Zone, Convergens Subzone is a significant stratigraphic marker within the Inferior Oolite Formation, which is renowned for its diverse and well-preserved ammonite faunas.

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.
