Description

Promicroceras marstonense Fossil Slab

This genuine Promicroceras marstonense fossil is presented as a sliced, polished slab from Marston Magna, Somerset, UK. The specimen is identified as a Marston Magna ammonite fossil and is an appealing choice for fossil collectors, geology enthusiasts, educational displays and anyone interested in Lower Jurassic palaeontology.

Identification and Geological Context

The specimen is identified as Promicroceras marstonense. Its geological information includes Marston Marble, the Obtusum Zone, the Lower Lias and the Lower Jurassic. These details place the fossil within an important period of Earth history when ammonites were widespread marine animals. Ammonites were extinct, coiled cephalopods that lived in the oceans and are valued by collectors both for their distinctive fossil forms and for their importance in geological study.

The Obtusum Zone is a biostratigraphic interval within the Lower Jurassic. Fossils associated with ammonite zones are particularly significant because ammonites are widely used by palaeontologists to help compare and date marine rock sequences. The supplied identification makes this specimen a useful addition to a collection focused on Jurassic fossils, British geology or ammonite-bearing material.
