A beautifully preserved specimen of Promicroceras planicosta, fully replaced by calcite. This ammonite displays fine ribbing and its characteristic planispiral coiling. As a key index fossil of the Lower Jurassic Sinemurian, Promicroceras is highly significant for ammonite biostratigraphy in the UK.
