Hello Everyone, This came off the beach at Lyme Regis, heading toward Charmouth. I believe it to be part of an Ichthyosaur front paddle from near the "wrist" end. Confirmation required and any further information would be great. Thank you.

Not sure what it is really, the pictures don't do it justice but the edge thats exposed is actually smooth and shiny. -

Could some please ID these fossils from the classic location, Lyme Regis? The bottom two pictures are from the same fossil and a UV light was used on one of the fossils to help it show up.

Good Afternoon, I am new to this forum and I thought I may use the fossil ID service. I had a trip to the Jurassic Coast at Lyme Regis, England just after a storm and I snorkeled the coast as there always a wealth of fossils just out of reach under the waves. I found this strange item and had it ID'd locally as a possible Ichthyosaur paddle bone but I am unsure and think it may be just a geological formation. Marine worms have been making it their home and burrowing in which I haven't removed the remnants yet. The scale on the measure is in cm. Any second opinions are most welcome. Dan

Hello everyone! Im just wondering if anyone has any tips on cracking a nodule open? Me and my geology hammer have taken a good whack at around the edges but all I’m getting is chipping and no splitting. My first time with a nodule. I found it on a trip to Lyme Regis. I’ve posted a picture of one of the chips with a few ammonites showing themselves. thanks for reading! Ryan

Firstly apologies for the lateness of this post, spent a week down in Lyme Regis from the 17th of December. Was out most evenings and some mornings due to the tide times, however i found hunting at night just as productive and with a lot less competition! The weather had been incredibly rough and was a bit unsettling at night when you could hear parts of the cliff falling down! The first few nights i mainly found ammonites and a few pieces of rolled bone (no photos of these, can put some up if anyone wishes me too) Best find was a partial ichthyosaur rostrum from below the Black Ven. Unfortunately no teeth and it has been very well rolled! None the less i was most pleased to find it. Found a couple more nice sized ammonites covered in pyrite and one well worn vertebra. See attached images. If anyone would like anymore photos please do not hesitate to ask. All in all a good week. Thanks for reading.
