🧬 Fossil & Geological Details:

  • Fossil Type: Ammonite
  • Genus: Geyerina
  • Species: Geyerina fasciata
  • Order: Ammonitida
  • Superfamily: Hammatoceratoidea
  • Family: Hammatoceratidae
  • Geological Period: Jurassic
  • Geological Stage: Aalenian (Middle Jurassic)
  • Age: ~174 to 170 million years ago
  • Location: Port Mulgrave, North Yorkshire, UK
  • Formation: Possibly part of the Lower Oolite or Whitby Mudstone succession (depending on exact bed)
  • Depositional Environment: Marine, offshore shelf—likely low-energy, muddy sea floor conditions

🌀 Morphology & Features:

Geyerina fasciata is identifiable by:

  • Strongly ribbed, involute shell
  • Deep constrictions between ribs
  • Pronounced keels, often with tubercles or nodes
  • Compressed whorl section
  • Ribbing often becomes more fasciculate (bundled) toward the venter, giving the species its name
  • Excellent for study in ammonite evolutionary development across Aalenian biozones

Its distinctive morphology makes it a useful zonal indicator for the Aalenian and helps in biostratigraphic correlation across northwest Europe.

🔬 Scientific & Collector Importance:

Geyerina fasciata was originally described in the 19th century and remains a key taxon for understanding ammonite faunal turnover during the Aalenian. Specimens from Port Mulgrave are often well-preserved and are of interest to:

  • Ammonite collectors
  • Stratigraphers
  • Palaeontology educators
  • Museums & research institutions

You Will Receive:

  • The exact Geyerina fasciata fossil shown in the listing photos
  • Certificate of Authenticity
  • Protective packaging for safe delivery
  • Tracked UK/international shipping available

Add this beautifully preserved, scientifically important ammonite to your collection—perfect for collectors, educators, and palaeontology enthusiasts alike.

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.
