Phylloceras Velledae Fossil Ammonite Albian Cretaceous Boeny Madagascar

Original price was: £18.00.Current price is: £14.40.

This listing features a superbly preserved PHYLLOCERAS VELLEDAE fossil ammonite, a rare and genuine specimen from the Albian Stage of the Early Cretaceous Period (approximately 113 to 100 million years ago). It originates from the rich marine fossil deposits of Boeny, Madagascar.

Geology & Origin:

The Boeny region was once part of a vast, shallow tropical sea during the Albian, supporting a diverse marine ecosystem. As marine organisms like ammonites died, they were rapidly buried in fine ocean sediment, enabling fossilization over millions of years. The exceptional preservation conditions in Boeny make it one of Madagascar’s premier fossil sites.

Fossil Type & Species:

  • Type: Fossil Ammonite (Extinct marine mollusc)
  • Species: Phylloceras velledae
  • Preservation: Excellent, showing clear coiling and surface structure

Description

Fossil Identification

This listing is for a Phylloceras Velledae fossil ammonite identified as Albian, Cretaceous, from Boeny, Madagascar. Phylloceras Velledae is a distinctive fossil identification for collectors interested in ammonites, Cretaceous paleontology and the fossil record of Madagascar. The specimen is supplied as a genuine fossil specimen and is accompanied by the stated certificate wording included below.

Geological Context

The Albian is a stage of the Cretaceous Period. Cretaceous fossils are widely collected for the information they provide about ancient life and changing environments through geological time. An ammonite fossil offers a direct connection to this history through the preserved remains of an extinct cephalopod group. Ammonites are known for their coiled shells, chambered construction and intricate shell growth, making them especially popular with fossil collectors, educators and students of paleontology.

The recorded location for this specimen is Boeny, Madagascar. Madagascar is well known among fossil collectors for its varied fossil material, and a specimen associated with Boeny can add geographical interest to a collection focused on Madagascan paleontology. The locality and Albian, Cretaceous identification provide useful cataloguing information for display, study and comparison with other ammonite fossils.

Collector Interest

This Phylloceras Velledae fossil ammonite is suited to collectors building a focused ammonite display, a Cretaceous fossil collection or a selection of specimens representing Madagascar. It can also be used as an educational display piece when discussing ammonites, fossilisation and the geological timescale. The named identification and geological age make it suitable for a labelled cabinet, classroom presentation or personal study collection.

The fossil may be displayed alongside other ammonites and Cretaceous specimens to create a themed arrangement based on geological age, fossil group or locality. Its documented identification as Phylloceras Velledae and its Albian, Cretaceous association provide meaningful descriptive information for collection records and display labels.
