Homarus morrisi is a species of fossil lobster from the Eocene of southern England .
Taxonomy [ edit ]
Specimens of H. morrisi were described as early as 1849, but were assigned to Hoploparia gammaroides rather than Homarus by scientists that included Frederick M'Coy and Thomas Bell . In 1987, W. J. Quayle recognised that the material then ascribed to Hoploparia gammaroides represented two species, and described the new species Homarus morrisi for those that didn't match the description of Hoploparia gammaroides .[1] The specific epithet honours S. F. Morris of the Department of Palaeontology at the "British Museum (Natural History)" (now the Natural History Museum ).[1]
The Barton Beds at New Milton , Hampshire have yielded fossils of Homarus morrisi .
Stratigraphy [ edit ]
Homarus morrisi has been found at a range of sites across Southern England . It occurs in the Ypresian London Clay at Bognor Regis , the Isle of Sheppey , London and sites across Essex ,[2] the Ypresian –Lutetian Bracklesham Group at Bracklesham Bay , Selsey and Whitecliff Bay (Isle of Wight ), and in the Bartonian Barton Beds of Christchurch Bay , Hampshire .[1]
