Crann Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hi found these large pieces of what look like ammonites, could this be ID'd please, did find a whole one around 1ft in diameter but no detail on it, had obvious shape and heavy to haul up the cliffs. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TqB Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hi, I'm assuming those are from the Yorkshire coast? The ones in the first photo and the bottom one in the second are all Phylloceras heterophyllum. Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crann Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Yep Yorkshire coast, so you think the two in the top pic are the same species ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it often develops the large rib undulations on larger shells. Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crann Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Wish the large full one I found had detail, was a beauty, only tapped it and 1/3 fell off, could see the sections inside just no external detail apart from the obvious shell design on the edge, was kicking myself for not taking a pic of it before I got excited with it...
