Ludwigia Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I don't go in for the auctions all that often, but I just couldn't resist the starting price for this one and I managed to get it for a reasonable price. Just arrived with the post today. An Euaspidoceras douvillei from the lower Oxfordian at Villers-sur-Mer, Normandy. The inner whorls are missing, but the lovely spines more than make up for that.

Ludwigia Posted February 6, 2017 Author Share Posted February 6, 2017 Ah! You mean those ones. I thought you were making a joke about the missing inner whorls I mentioned.

I've got some friends on The Island and I've promised to visit them sometime. It's just a question of when. Haven't been there since '75 and it'll probably take a couple more years before I manage it. But when I do, then for at least a month and I'd spend half of the time visiting some sites. I recently devoured West Coast Fossils from Ludvigsen & Beard. At least I can dream. Greetings from the Lake of Constance.
