£ 60.00
This listing features a RARE 6.5" fossil ammonite, Haugia variabilis,
originating from the Middle Toarcian Stage of the Jurassic Period, discovered in the well-known fossiliferous strata of Calvados, Normandy, France. This beautifully preserved ammonite is both scientifically valuable and visually striking.It comes from a carefully chosen collection and is presented exactly as shown in the photo. Accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity, this fossil reflects the deep marine biodiversity of the Jurassic seas that once covered the region. Geological & Palaeontological Details:
• Species: Haugia variabilis
• Geological Period: Jurassic
• Geological Stage: Middle Toarcian (~181 to 178 million years ago)
• Locality: Calvados, Normandy, France

• Order: Ammonitida
• Superfamily: Hildoceratoidea
• Family: Hildoceratidae
• Biozone (associated): Frequently associated with the Haugia variabilis and Hildaites murleyi zones
• Identification: First described in 1853 by F.A. d'Orbigny, Haugia variabilis is a classic ammonite used for correlation of Toarcian marine deposits in Western Europe Morphological Features:
• Strong, bifurcating ribbing with well-marked growth lines
• Involute coiling with a relatively narrow umbilicus
• Compressed whorls with pronounced ornamentation across the flanks
