Presenting a RARE Fagesia fagesi ammonite fossil from the Lower Turonian stage of the Cretaceous period, originating from Sarthe, France.

This exceptionally well-preserved fossil represents a true collector’s ammonite from the Late Cretaceous seas of western Europe. You will receive the exact specimen shown in the photographs, and the scale cube (1cm squares) helps with full-size reference. All of our fossils are 100% genuine, carefully selected, and include a Certificate of Authenticity.

Geological & Scientific Information:

  • Species: Fagesia fagesi
  • Type: Fossil Ammonite (extinct marine mollusc)
  • Geological Period: Cretaceous
  • Stage: Lower Turonian (approx. 93.9 to 89.8 million years ago)
  • Location Found: Sarthe, France
  • Order: Ammonitida
  • Superfamily: Acanthoceratoidea
  • Family: Acanthoceratidae
  • Subfamily: Fagesiinae
  • Morphological Features: Moderately involute, strongly ribbed shell, generally globular in form with ventral tubercles. Its distinctive ornamentation helps to identify its placement in stratigraphy.
  • Depositional Environment: Shallow marine environments with fine sedimentation, characteristic of the early Turonian transgressive phase following the Cenomanian-Turonian boundary event.
  • Scientific Importance: Fagesia species are biostratigraphically important for dating Lower Turonian marine sediments across Europe and North Africa.

Additional Notes:

Fagesia fagesi is a prized ammonite among Cretaceous collectors due to its rarity and zonal value. Its presence in Sarthe’s fossil record helps palaeontologists correlate layers across vast geographies. This example, with fine preservation, makes an excellent addition to any fossil or geological collection.

Cretaceous Information

The Cretaceous Period (145–66 million years ago) was the final era of the Mesozoic, marked by the dominance of dinosaurs and the rise of flowering plants. It had a warm, greenhouse climate, with high sea levels that created vast shallow inland seas. Marine life flourished, including mosasaurs, ammonites, and rudist reefs, while the land was ruled by iconic dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus rex, Triceratops, and Spinosaurus. Mammals and birds diversified, and insects thrived. The period ended with the mass extinction event, likely caused by an asteroid impact, wiping out the dinosaurs and paving the way for the rise of mammals in the Cenozoic.
