Geological & Scientific Information:

  • Fossil Type: Ammonite
  • Species: Wagnericeras wagneri
  • Order: Ammonitida
  • Superfamily: Stephanoceratoidea
  • Family: Tulitidae (sometimes placed within Sonniniidae depending on classification)
  • Geological Stage: Upper Bathonian (approx. 166.1 – 164.7 million years ago)
  • Biozone: Possibly the Retrocostatum or Zigzag Zones based on known occurrences
  • Period: Jurassic
  • Locality: Deux-Sèvres, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France
  • Depositional Environment: Shallow marine environment; fine-grained carbonate-rich sediment typical of epicontinental seas in the European Jurassic

 

Morphology & Notable Features:

  • Shell moderately involute with slightly compressed whorl section
  • Distinctive ribbing pattern, often falcoid (sickle-shaped) or bifurcating across flanks
  • Rounded venter with continuous rib development
  • Ornamentation is well-defined and contributes to the diagnostic value of the species
  • Specimens like this are uncommon in commercial fossil markets and prized by collectors

 

Scientific Significance: Wagnericeras wagneri is a relatively rare ammonite from the Upper Bathonian, important in regional biostratigraphic frameworks across western Europe. Its well-preserved features make it useful in correlating marine strata and understanding ammonoid evolutionary trends during the Middle Jurassic.

Formally described in classic European ammonite literature, this species is noted for its sharp ornamentation and limited stratigraphic range, making it a valuable zone fossil in refined geological studies.

 

Ideal For:

  • Ammonite and Jurassic fossil collectors
  • Stratigraphic and paleontological reference collections
  • Academic study or museum-quality display

 

What You Will Receive:

  • The exact Wagnericeras wagneri fossil shown in the photos
  • Certificate of Authenticity
  • Secure, protective packaging for safe delivery

Jurassic Information

The Jurassic Period (201–145 million years ago) was the golden age of dinosaurs, with iconic species like Brachiosaurus, Stegosaurus, and Allosaurus dominating the land. It was a time of warm, humid climates, with high sea levels that created vast shallow seas, supporting abundant marine reptiles, ammonites, and early coral reefs. The first birds, such as Archaeopteryx, evolved from small theropod dinosaurs, while early mammals remained small and nocturnal. Lush forests of cycads, conifers, and ferns covered the land, providing food for giant herbivores. The breakup of the supercontinent Pangaea accelerated, shaping Earth's geography and setting the stage for the diverse ecosystems of the Cretaceous.
