There is actually a beautiful #belemnite in there, pic later.

A gray cigar-shaped fossil. At the tip, there is a cone-shaped extension.

Early Cretaceous #Fossil #belemnite Neohibolites minimus. Belemnites are by far the most common fossil coleoid cephalopods of the Mesozoic and are a calcitic part of the internal shell. #paleontology #FossilFriday

The palaeobiology of belemnites – foundation for the interpretation of rostrum geochemistry Belemnites are an extinct group of Mesozoic coleoid cephalopods with a fossil record ranging from the early Late Triassic [about 240 million years ago (Mya)] to the Cretaceous/Palaeogene boundary (65....

It‘s the five year anniversary of the publication of René Hoffmann’s and mine review of #belemnite #paleobiology. It‘s open access and I think has aged quite well, which is of course in part due to not many people studying belemnites…

Phylogeochemistry: exploring evolutionary constraints on belemnite rostrum element composition Abstract. The biogenic carbonate hardparts of a large range of marine organisms are the most important geochemical archives of Earth’s climate dynamics through time and the evolution of life. That sai...

Small painting of the #belemnite Parapassaloteuthis zieteni for my own little collection.
The belemnite rostra were collected from the #toarcian #Posidoniashale of Dotternhausen, Germany.

A selection of #cephalopod #fossils in the floor of #Blackpool's Houndshill Shopping Centre. Far more interesting than just about anything else in there.

Complete specimens of Passaloteuthis bisulcata from the early Toarcian, Tenuicostatum Zone, Semicelatum Subzone, Ohmden, Germany. Both specimens were deformed, perhaps by predation or by compaction of oblique embedding (sinking rostrum first). Note that no scale bars were added in b and d because these are distorted versions of a and c. a Perhaps a female (a) because of the ten similar arms from the Museum Hauff (Holzmaden). c Perhaps a male (b) because of the large hooks from the Staatliches Museum für Naturkunde in Stuttgart, SMNS 70559). b and d show the same specimens retro-deformed using PhotoShop with the approximate longitudinal proportions

Artistic reconstruction (by Christian Klug?): A scene from the Germanic Basin during the Bajocian (e.g. in Germany, Luxembourg or Switzerland) with Megateuthis suevica catching a lytoceratid, a five-meter-long ophthalmosaurid like Argovisaurus, and nautilids in the background. These species co-existed in central Europe, but there is no direct evidence for their actual interactions
