Tricky Ammonite ID, just a piece but cant tell what

[DenBoy]

I know this is only a fragment, I'm hesitant to say small piece (Would love to see how big the whole one would have been), Found washed up on Shanklin, I know its gault clay but I'm really struggling to find out what species this is, the ridges seem so spaced / wide compared to most examples I've checked in books or online   please help a newbie

I think we will need better pictures to make any determination - this is rather fuzzy, and I cannot make out any ammonite details.  

Please take pictures in bright outside sunlight, from multiple angles, with something in the picture for scale - measuring tape or ruler preferably. 

Placing the item on a flat surface is also helpful when taking pictures to reduce blur from hand movement.  

Regards,

Tim got it all right, better pictures are needed. Maybe take photos from different angles too, so that we have a better idea of the exact shape of the fossil.

I'm no ammonite expert though, but many people on this forum are, so I suggest you take better pictures and post them, and then wait for the experts to kick in.

 

Your find does seem very interesting though, I hope you will be able to get a ID!

 

Best regards,

Thanks guys, I'm in England in winter so " bright outside sunlight " is rare treat, but when I get a chance I'll try to get better pics & hopefully if funds permit a better camera soon
