Description

Fossil Identification

This listing presents a Promicroceras marstonense fossil in a multi-block format, associated with Marston Magna, Somerset, UK. The specimen is identified within the Marston Marble, Obtusum Zone, Lower Lias and Lower Jurassic. It is a distinctive choice for fossil collectors, geology enthusiasts, ammonite enthusiasts and anyone interested in British Jurassic palaeontology.

Promicroceras marstonense is an ammonite fossil, representing an extinct marine cephalopod group known for its coiled shell form. Ammonites are particularly valued in palaeontology because their fossils can display clear shell geometry and provide important information for comparing rocks from different geological intervals. The supplied identification places this specimen within the Lower Jurassic and the Obtusum Zone, giving it useful geological context for educational collections and display.

Geological Context

The Lower Jurassic forms part of the Mesozoic Era, a major interval in Earth history when ammonites were widespread in marine environments. The Lower Lias is a well-known Jurassic succession, and the stated Obtusum Zone provides a more specific biostratigraphic setting within that interval. Marston Marble is the named geological material associated with this fossil. Together, the identification and geological details make this specimen relevant to studies of ammonites, Jurassic stratigraphy and the fossil record of the United Kingdom.

Collector and Display Appeal
