Years Discovery Site: Nusplingen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany Fossil Measurement: 2,2 und 3,0 cm (0.87 inch) Matrix Measurement: 7,0 x 10,5 x 1,1 cm (4.13 x 0.43 inch) Remarks: Beautiful belemnite from the
Plate limestone from the
scientific

The piece is a remains of food
from a larger predator (fish,
ichtyosaur...). The belemnite
was bitten into pieces and
then sank to the ground, where
the two pieces were embedded
separately.
Great piece of evidence!.
Good change to get
one of those as fossils from
Nusplingen are not common on
the market. Price: EUR 24.50* Status: reserved |
