Belemnite Phragmocones

Belemnite Phragmocones

Ancient fossilised remains of sea creatures known as Belemnites.

They are common fossils, and as such a few different species are found in and around the UK. If you look carefully enough, you can often find Belemnites in gravel beds; although they may be of different species – and finding an intact Phragmocone would be unlikely.

1. 93x67x35MM – an unprepared specimen from Whitby.
2. 47x22x20MM – an almost perfect Phragmocone in situ, from the UK
