I have to agree with the others on barnacle.

A Quick Trip to Green's Mill Run with a Few Surprise Finds (And a Very Brief Aurora, NC Visit)
Andúril Flame of the West replied to Echinoid Express's topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Congrats on the productive trips! Those Squalicorax have me . The Skolithos are particularly interesting and I enjoy running across them on occasion when hunting the Aquia of Maryland. I believe that you are correct and that these are weathered clasts that originated from Cambrian deposits farther inland. In my hunts I have encountered a number of interesting specimens including some that preserve the mold of the trace itself. Again, congratulations on your successful hunts and I look forward to seeing your future exploits into the Triassic!

Here you go!

I'm sure. It just doesn't look like any of the barnacle I have.
-
I found lots of these but never a whole one. Not much to go on.

Both my piles had lots of these. And also a shell I can't ID. I've never found a whole piece to see what it looks like.

Thank you!!

There are many types of barnacles from many different ages. I think if you look closely, you will notice a similarity in the texture.

Hello and welcome to the forum! This is definitely part of a big barnacle. the pic of megabalanus below is not an exact fit, but you can see the triangular stripes of smooth surface between the more rugose surfaces. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabalanus#/media/File:Megabalanus_tintinnabulum_fossils_speciemen1.png Best regards, J

No, not a barnacle. I have lots of those.

@paleoflor Hi, have you any experience with Cretaceous horsetail identification? Without understanding the time period I first suggested calamite. This would be inappropriate for this area of Texas that is supposed to be cretaceous. I was unable to find any photos of cretaceous horsetail fossils resembling this. Specimen from north of Austin, Texas. Thank you, Kato

The last photo is about 30 mm, so you have a third of a Dire Wolf m1. Only likely canids are dire wolf, coyote, dog. Time for Harrys expertise if he sees this

I believe they are stingray barbs, tough to say from so far zoomed out but I'm pretty sure. -

Trying to get better angles. It's not flat so it's difficult.

My first thought was barnacle. Had no 2nd thought RB

Not an egg, but a Concretion for sure. Concretions are often mistaken for eggs.

I'll post better pics soon. Needs daylight.

We found this while shell hunting in Newport Beach, CA. Can anyone tell me what we found. Please!

Beautiful! What is the most abundant shell in this pile? Maybe the source can be tracked down? Franz Bernhard

Author Posted 1 hour ago Hello dear forum visitors. We need your help again. With your permission, I will continue the topic, a find from the same pit. On our next trip we found such a curious tooth. There is an assumption that this is a tooth of a young Cretoxyrhina denticulata subadult. I still know that adults don't have side toothbrushes But he looks very thin and thin. Tell me please. Ural, city of Kamensk-Uralsky, sediments - Campanian. The size is exactly 2 centimeters
