Description
Bullatimorphites bullatus Fossil Ammonite
This rare Bullatimorphites bullatus fossil ammonite is identified as Lower Callovian, Jurassic. It is an appealing addition to a fossil collection, geological display, natural history cabinet or educational collection. The specimen is associated with the Jurassic period and the Lower Callovian stage, placing it within an important interval of ammonite evolution and marine fossil history.
Identification and Geological Interest
Bullatimorphites is a genus of ammonite, an extinct group of marine cephalopods known from the fossil record. Ammonites lived in ancient marine environments and possessed coiled shells divided internally into chambers. These chambered shells are among the most recognisable fossils in geology and are valued for both their scientific importance and their distinctive natural appearance.
The specific identification supplied for this specimen is Bullatimorphites bullatus. Its additional identification is Lower Callovian, Jurassic. The Callovian forms part of the Jurassic geological period, making this specimen relevant to collectors interested in Jurassic palaeontology, ammonites, stratigraphy and the history of marine life. The exact identification is particularly useful for display labels, fossil cataloguing and educational use.
Collection and Locality Information
From the Alice Purnell Collection
The supplied locality information is: FONTANAY LE COMTE, POITIER. France. This locality detail adds useful cataloguing context for collectors who organise specimens by geographic location, geological age or taxonomic identification. It can also be included on a display label alongside the genus, species and Lower Callovian, Jurassic classification.
Collector Display and Educational Use
This fossil ammonite is suitable for a range of display settings, including a home fossil cabinet, study, classroom, museum-style presentation or geology-themed interior. Ammonites are especially popular with collectors because they connect visible fossil form with wider geological subjects such as ancient seas, extinction, evolutionary history and biostratigraphy.
The specimen may be displayed as a standalone natural history object or alongside other Jurassic fossils and ammonites. Its named identification makes it more informative than an unidentified fossil and provides a useful starting point for research into Bullatimorphites, Callovian ammonites and Jurassic marine ecosystems. Full sizing is shown in the photographs.
