Fish Fossil Wrapped in a Cephalopod

[Scylla]

Cool fossil found over a century ago redescribed. A "squid-like" creature hunted a fish and both were fossilized.

Greedy squiddy. 

Thanks for sharing, very interesting fossil from an area I love.

A real ream fossil! Clarkeiteuthis on its own is very rare - I've collected a lot in the area and never found one.

That's really cool

I always love hearing about stuff that comes out of the Lyme Regis area - especially if it's squids or reptiles!
