I have got an ammonite with an old collection, but, where does it come from and whats the name...? I am sure it is a middle european one, france or southern germany. And think I have seen one like this many years ago, but..., forgot the name (might be something like Hecticoceras, but it does not fit perfect). Might be someone can support with the determination, this would really help a lot. thanks!

Hello together, I just acquired some little bone and tooth(?) fragments from the rhaetian bonebed near Bebenhausen. Whoever collected them in the seventies wrote "Psephosaurus?, Schmidt page 411" on the label. I think that was rather wishful thinking. There are some bowl-shaped elements of 3-5 mm with a concave side that may show enamel. I tend to think those are some kind of fish teeth, Who can tell me more? Best Regards, J

10 years ago we have seen this huge ammonites in Tucson. Size was around 35 cm, as I remember Forgot the ID..., I think it was Coroniceras from somerset, but? what do you think? e.g. Britain is not 100%, I remember it was, but now it is 2023 and I am older than 10 years ago

L.S., I recently purchased an old collection of plant fossils. The boxes also contained an odd couple of non-plants, which I would like to offer up for trade. Ideally, I would like to get some plant fossils in return. Photos below, with scale in centimetres at bottom. Disclaimer: The information below is "as received". I cannot guarantee provenance/identifications are 100% correct since these pieces come from an old collection, plus marine beasties are not really my cup of tea... Kind regards, Tim Specimen A: Large plate with several ammonites (Harpoceras sp.?) on a large plate from the Toarcian (Liassic, Jurassic) of Dudelange in Luxembourg Specimen B: Polished section with several belemnites (Dactyloteuthis sp.?) from the Jurassic of the area around Bayreuth in Bavaria, Germany (note: could use a re-polish to bring out the texture better).

Found in lower Jurrasic, Liassic Clays at Seatown near Lyme Regis, Dorset, England. In Lower Liassic Clays, Jurassic rocks, close to Belemnite beds. Curved shape and heavy for size, made me wonder if it could be a rib fragment from Ichthysaur. Could just be limestone / Pyrite nodule, but I don't have enough expertise to know..Thanks. Greg.

the oldest jurassic ammonites you can find in Germany are Psiloceras. Its the earliest Ammonit in the Jurassic ever. A very "boring one", no or less fine ribs, no spikes... But great and not easy to find. This nice slab comes from northwestern Germany, Horn-Bad Meinberg. from a road construction in the 80th of last century© fossils worldwide
