Description

Pleuroceras spinatum Ammonite Fossil

This fossil is identified as Pleuroceras spinatum, an ammonite associated with the Lower Lias Formation of the Jurassic. The specimen locality is Unterstürmig, Germany, giving it a clearly documented geological and regional focus for collectors of European fossils, Jurassic material and ammonites.

Identification and Geological Context

Ammonites were extinct marine cephalopods that lived in the world’s oceans and are valued by collectors for their distinctive coiled shells and importance in the fossil record. Their fossils are especially popular because they combine scientific interest, recognizable form and a strong connection to the history of ancient marine environments. Pleuroceras spinatum belongs to this important ammonite record and is presented here with the supplied identification of Lower Lias Formation, Jurassic.

The Lower Lias represents an important part of the Jurassic geological record. Fossils from this interval are studied for the information they provide about ancient marine life, changing environments and the distribution of organisms through geological time. A Pleuroceras spinatum specimen from Unterstürmig, Germany is therefore well suited to collectors who enjoy Jurassic palaeontology, ammonite taxonomy, German fossils and geological specimens with a specific formation and locality association.
