Manticocerasman Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I wanted to share a few belemnites in my collection, personaly I think they are a bit of an underrated fossil and could use a little more attention. They can be very beautiful and colorful and of course they are cephalopods Belemnites from Eben-Emael ( Belgium ) Maastrichtian: Belemnites from the area of Mons ( Belgium ) Maastrichtian: Belemnites of the area of Mons (Belgium ) Campanian (2 brachiopods infiltrated the picture ) 8 growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional.

Pagurus Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 Those are real beauties. I especially like those still on matrix. I've only found free-roaming belemnites. Start the day with a smile and get it over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
