Ammonites from unknown locations.

Hello all

 

Since I can't go to school for a couple of weeks I have time to catch up with some ID's. Most of these ammonites have been in my collection for years, thinking it's impossible to ID these because of lack of location. Most of these come from old collections without labelling.

 

1: Only location info: Austria. Nothing more. @FranzBernhard could you help me with this one? About 7 cm in size.

2: I think it was said this one is from Russia, but many locations from this collection turned out to be incorrect afterwards. About 2 cm in size.

3: No location at all. 3-4 cm in size.

I know it is hard to ID fossils without location, but I've seen crazier things seen happen here.:)

This one is not an ammonite, but a belemnite graveyard without location info. The piece is 11 cm long.

The first one looks like a very worn steinkern from the Jurassic Adnet Formation. Maybe some kind of Phylloceratid. But that is just a guess because lobes are too worn.
