The Cenozoic era began approximately 70 million years ago and continues to this day. In "British Cenozoic Fossils" 354 species from this period are classified and illustrated with precise lines. This new edition has been fully revised and updated by John Todd, Curator of Molluscs in the Department of Zoological Sciences at the Natural History Museum, reflecting advances in our understanding of the fossil record in recent years. The book's 88-page identification section includes these fossil animal and plant species most commonly found in Britain, from early plants, corals, and fish to gastropods and bivalve mollusks as well as the remains of mammals that lived in Britain during the Ice Ages. Each species is accompanied by at least one illustration, along with details of where it can be found. There is a brief introduction to the topic, stratigraphic tables showing British Cenozoic formations, and a color map of the distribution of Cenozoic layers. Pages: 112, Dimensions: 13.5x13.5cm
