Made a fairly brief visit to a site in Ocean County, near New Egypt, NJ. on Monday 4/6/15. There was a shell bed exposed in a very muddy narrow ravine composed of the Paleocene brachiopod; Oleneothyris harlani. Collected a number of small specimens. They are extremely fragile and usually crumble when exposed. Will return some time to collect, hopefully better specimens.

Hey guys, I've been puzzling over some brachiopods that I've found at a site in PA that exposes the Mifflintown formation. This is a Silurian aged rock formation that is dated to about 428-420 mya (Sheinwoodian to Gorstian stages). It corresponds to the McKenzie formation in Maryland and West Virginia and a part of the Clinton Group in New York. The brachiopods are all Rhynchonellid types and look very similar. I've been able to split them into three somewhat distinct types based on the sulcus depth and size. Below is a picture of specimens of each type with the labels that I think go with them. I based my IDs on a variety of resources, many of which are very old and have older generic nomenclature. Among my sources were: "Index Fossils of North America" by Schimer and Schrock (1949) The "Silurian" volume from the Maryland Geological Survey (1923) "Silurian System of West Virginia" from the West Virginia Geological Survey (1941) "Fossil Collecting in Pennsylvania" from the Pennsylvania Geological Survey (1983) "Fossil Collecting in the Mid-Atlantic States" by Jasper Burns (1991) I'd appreciate any feedback or alternate ID suggestions.

I revisited a creek Tennessee that I had mildly glossed over in the past. With more purpose this time I searched and found some of the most beautiful and large fossils I have encountered yet. As a crinoid enthusiast I was overjoyed, and even more exciting was all of the OTHER marine fossils I found, expanding my appreciation of all kinds of fossilized beauty. here are a few of my favorite examples and I may post more as I continue to photograph my finds.

From the album: Urban Fossils of Toronto (Georgian Bay Formation, Lower Member)
Zygospira erratica. These two are set on a limestone hash plate with an orthocone to the left. Both are the same species and have an obvious sulcus. Mimico creek, Toronto, late Ordovician, Georgian Bay formation. Edit: I also have found a massive slab of limestone that had a death assemblage of these brachiopods . I forgot to take photos though , and I'm not sure if the slab is still there.© (©)

From the album: Arkona material
The other mucrospirifer I bought along with the previous specimen I mentioned. Devonian stuff doesn't really interest me but with these I can feel a different surge of interest surfacing in me...I mean these Devonian fossils ARE kinda beautiful so why wouldn't anyone want them? Arkona, Ontario, Devonian.© (©)
