Description
Promicroceras marstonense Fossil
This specimen is identified as Promicroceras marstonense and is presented as a fossil multi block featuring Marston Magna ammonites. It is associated with Marston Magna in Somerset, UK, making it an appealing piece for fossil collectors, ammonite enthusiasts, geology students and anyone interested in Lower Jurassic palaeontology.
Geological Identification
The specimen is listed as Marston Marble, from the Obtusum Zone of the Lower Lias and Lower Jurassic. These geological terms place the fossil within an important part of Jurassic Earth history, when marine environments supported diverse ammonite populations. The identification and stratigraphic information provide useful context for display, study and collection cataloguing.
Ammonite Fossil Interest
Ammonites are extinct marine cephalopods recognised for their coiled shells and their value in understanding the geological past. Because ammonites occurred widely through the Jurassic and evolved over successive intervals, their fossils are frequently used in biostratigraphy and geological correlation. Promicroceras marstonense offers a specific named identification rather than a generic ammonite label, while the stated Obtusum Zone supplies additional stratigraphic interest.
Marston Magna and Somerset Locality
Marston Magna, Somerset, UK, is the locality associated with this fossil. The supplied geological description connects the specimen with Marston Marble and the Lower Lias. This combination of named fossil, locality and stratigraphic zone makes the piece suitable for a labelled display, educational collection or specialist ammonite cabinet.
Collector Display and Educational Use
The multi-block format gives this fossil a distinctive presentation for collectors who enjoy specimens with a clear geological identity. It can be displayed alongside other Jurassic fossils, ammonites or regional Somerset material to create a themed collection. The named species and zone also make it useful for discussing fossil identification, Jurassic marine life, stratigraphy and the way palaeontologists organise specimens by locality and geological interval.
