Once again I slack in posting things on here. last week I decided to dig out a very large ammonite I found last year. It’s a Phylloceras Heterophyllum. Quite rare around here, and to get one as big as this is, is even rarer. It weighed an absolute tonne but worth it. All the prep work is done, all that’s left now is to rebuild some small sections and cracks. It’ll be a stunning piece once’s finished.

A few pieces of my favourite flora fossils from the Derybshire UK Coal Measures. Lepidostrobophyllum sporophylls, Lepidostrobus and Alethoptreris there are a lot more in my collection but the Mazon Creek flora...... ie Neuropteris nodules and a lot of others are much better. Cheers John

Zygorhiza wanklyni (?) (Seeley 1876) Fossil whale material is not common from Barton two species are recorded. According to the British NHM this is " centrum of anterior lumber vertabra of archaeocete whale. Of the two genera recorded from the Barton Clay, it is closest to Zygorhiza. However, there are a few anomalous features, like the presence of 3 ventral ridges which might indicate that it is not this genus. The circular scar on the R-H ventral surface may represent where the gastropod (possibly Calyptraea) was attached as the vertabra lay on the sea floor" It was suggested at the time anyone working on fossil Whales in the US might be able to shed some more light on the vertabra. So if anyone can help I'd be gratefull. Further reading 'Notes on Fossil Whales from the Upper Eocene of Barton Hampshire by L. Beverly Halstead & Jennifer Middleton' PROC. GEOL. .
