Description

Promicroceras marstonense Fossil Multi Block

This listed fossil is identified as Promicroceras marstonense and presented as a multi-block ammonite specimen. It is associated with Marston Magna in Somerset, UK, and is described within the Marston Marble, Obtusum Zone, Lower Lias and Lower Jurassic. The specimen is suited to fossil collectors, geology enthusiasts, educational displays and anyone interested in the ammonites of southern Britain.

Identification and Geological Context

Promicroceras marstonense is an ammonite identification associated with the Lower Jurassic. Ammonites were extinct marine cephalopods that lived in ancient seas and are commonly recognised by their coiled shells. Their fossilised shells are important to palaeontology because ammonites can help document changes through geological time and are often used in biostratigraphy, the study of fossil distribution within rock layers.

The supplied geological information places this specimen in the Obtusum Zone of the Lower Lias and identifies the material as Marston Marble. The Obtusum Zone is a biostratigraphic interval within the Lower Jurassic succession. Marston Magna, Somerset, is the stated UK location associated with this fossil. These geological terms provide useful context for collectors cataloguing Lower Jurassic ammonites and for displays focused on British fossil localities.

Collector and Display Appeal

A multi-block fossil can make an informative addition to a cabinet collection, teaching display or geological study area. The combination of a named Promicroceras marstonense identification, Marston Magna locality and Lower Jurassic zonal information gives the specimen clear cataloguing interest. It may also appeal to collectors building themed groups of ammonites, Lower Lias fossils or British geological material.

The supplied identification and locality details are especially useful when arranging a collection by taxon, geological interval or region. The specimen can be displayed as a standalone fossil or alongside reference material about ammonites, Jurassic marine environments and the stratigraphy of Somerset.
