But very bad preservation.

Enjoyed seeing your finds. I have a few specimens from there in my garage piles somewhere that someone else found. It must be a real treat to be able to hunt there. I use to find quite a few well worn belemnite fragments in California many years ago so its neat to see your well preserved specimens. Nice!

Thanks for showing us. Regards, Chris

I refered Polyplectus sp. because of the ribs' shape and proximity.I also had in consideration the geology of Holzmaden.

In my opinion, I just would labell as Lytoceras the last one.

However I'm not an expert and your Id could be more right than mine.

Regards,

Guguita

P.s:Here you have a photo of Polyplectus Pluricostatus.

The one pictured above the tooth.... Nice... :)

Thanks... this vert is only 2 cm big, so it was a little bit difficult to take a good picture of it (for me) :)

I don't see a Polyplectus but a Lytoceras

Thanks both... I think the sixth ammonite is a Harpoceras like Ludwigia write :)

Polyplectus is a subgenus of Harpoceras, or else a genus in its own right, depending on which author you happen to be reading at the time. At any rate it's a member of the Harpoceratinae subfamily and occurs within the same time frame as Harpoceras. I'm not sure myself which one it is now, but Guguita could very well be right.
