Belemnites are common in the upper cretaceous of NW-Germany. One of the nicest one is the upper campanian Belemnitella mucronata. This Belemnit got´s his name "mucronata" from "mucros", the tip at the top. Size is around 8 cm, Hannover -
First quick trip to Greens Mill Run in Greenville, NC. Definitely have to go back soon, lots of belemnites on first row, a cool new fossil for me. Second row was most common find, goblin shark teeth, and then finally two little crow shark teeth. Hard to see but at the bottom there's a very rolled shark vert. Good stuff.

These belemnites were found at the base of a cliff at low tide about 1 metre apart. Two are encased in rock and one is au natural. I do not know how to tell species differences (if any) or the era they were from, although I assume Jurassic. Some research suggestions?

I've been living in Chinese Camp, California for five years. I wouldn't have moved here except that I took my wife and two children looking for ammonite fossils. We found none that day, but we ended seeing an old country store for sale (only business in the abandoned town) and eventually bought it and live on the property. The fossils around here are all late Jurassic, but because of the forces that created the Sierra Nevada mountains, the fossils are very rare and in poor shape. Finding a whole ammonite, no matter small is a cause for great celebration, but this doesn't dampen my enjoyment at all. For several years we found some ammonites and a few Buccia (Jurassic brachiopod) but on rare occasions we found something long and tapered. I founds parts of these and they were segmented so I suspected belemnites. They are never (never ever) found alongside (in the same layers) ammonites, but they are in the same general formation (Mariposa Formation). Here are the fist ones I found, when I wasn't too sure what they were:

Jurassic, Callovian, Oxford Clay, Peterborough Member, Yaxley, Cambridgeshire. The closest thing I can think of to what this looks like is a belemnite, but the overall shape is wrong, and the cross-section is very wrong for belemnites I've found at this site and elsewhere. I haven't completely ruled that out though, and opinions would be appreciated.

Only two weeks ago, when i was out rock hunting on the south western coast of Norway, I found two rocks with fossils inside them. In Norway, fossils are only found in Oslo, Trondheim and on the northern part of Norway. The only fossils found in the west are in Ritlandskratere, an ancient meteor crater, four hours away from where i found mine. The fossils are some brachiopods and clams, a trilobite tail, a belemnite fragment and a belemnite phragmocone. There could maybe be some new species or sub species. I am waiting for the response of the Natural History Museum in Oslo. I will update on the response I get.

From the album: Delaware Fossils
Belemnitella americana showing internal molds. Upper Cretaceous Mt. Laurel Formation Delaware, USA It's not often one finds an internal mold of the guard where the internal texture is clearly visible. Although internal molds of other animals are common at this locality, any internal molds of belemnites are few and far between. Broken though it is, the lower specimen is one of my favorite belemnites.© c. 2022 Heather JM Siple

Hello, I have recently bought this fossil as an Acrocoelites oxyconus, from the toarcien of Tournadous, France. But after seeing the photos of Ludwigia, and others in the internet, it seems that it is not Acrocoelites oxyconus. The fossil looks to be broken and glued: Thanks!

Lots of belemnites in Peski quarry, but they are either small or partial. This is a rare big Callovian (?) specimen
