I wouldn't say last year was failed. I have found some new species and several exapmles of quite good preservartion to add in my collection. And some of that finds forced me to learn books deeply. All last year finds I systemized according to their genus and all are Carboniferous except coated Cordaites leaves.

Calamites

Calamostachys - spore cones.
