Palaeontological Association Field Guide to Fossils: Number 13.

Edited by Alan R. Lord and Paul G. Davis. The Paleontological Association London 2010.

The Lower Lias (Lower Jurassic) marine sediments exposed in the cliffs around Lyme Regis on the Dorset coast are famous for their fossils, from abundant ammonites to rarer ichthyosaurs and plesiosaur reptiles. This field guide provides a well-illustrated introduction to the range of invertebrate, vertebrate, and plant fossils likely to be encountered and is the most comprehensive account of Dorset Lower Lias Fauna and Flora yet to have been published.
