Three Articulated Ichthyosaurus Vertebrae (As Found)
Description: This photo was taken on 24/12/14 just after i spotted these three beautiful and still-joined Ichthyosaurus vertebrae lying on Charmouth Beach. I quickly resisted the urge to launch my hand out and pick them up and am glad i did. These verts are perhaps my favourite fossil that i have collected so it's nice to have a shot of them as they were originally found- just lying loose on the shore below the tide line, between Charmouth and Lyme Regis.
Geological Formation: Charmouth Mudstone Formation
Age: 195-190 million years old
Location: Coastline between the towns of Charmouth and Lyme Regis (under Black Ven)
