A nice example of an ichthyosaur coprolite fossil from the world-famous Jurassic Coast beach of Lyme Regis, Dorset UK.
The fossil is matrix free and measures 43 mm (1.7 inches) across, which is a good size for this fossil type. It represents the poo of the animal, which sank to the seafloor and was preserved in the soft mud. The fossil is well preserved and has been prepared using air abrasive techniques to remove all matrix.
It has good detail in its preservation and a nice mottled brown colour. It has a nice 3D shape that is instantly recognisable as a poo and contains the remains of the diet of an ichthyosaur. There are lots of fish scales and tiny bones preserved, showing a real snapshot of life in the Jurassic seas. It is a broken piece of a much larger coprolite, which means the internal details of the food remains have been revealed.
These are very popular and tactile fossils. Great for educating kids who never get tired of holding Jurassic poo!
These fossils were first found by pioneering Victorian fossils hunters like Mary Anning. Ichthyosaur bones are very popular fossils from this location.
Around 198 million years old (Sinemurian, Early Jurassic), this fossil would make a wonderful addition to any collection.
