Ammonites are especially valued in Jurassic geology because their changing forms can assist with the subdivision and correlation of sedimentary rocks. The Obtusum Zone is an ammonite biozone within the Lower Jurassic sequence, while Lower Lias is a traditional geological term used for Lower Jurassic strata.

The supplied geological designation also includes Marston Marble. In this listing, the specimen is presented with the locality and geological terminology provided for the fossil: Marston Magna, Somerset, UK; Marston Marble; Obtusum Zone; Lower Lias; and Lower Jurassic.
