I once in awhile check out the auction sites just to see what is posted. I do buy things once in awhile but very rarely. Today I was checking out some fossil fishes from china. Lots of the common fish, Lycoptera davidi being posted. All looked really good! Too good! I used that magnifier thingy and took a closer look. To me it was painfully obvious that the fins were painted. Buyer beware!!! and good luck RB

Good morning folks. I am requesting confirmation or correction assistance concerning this tooth described as Konobelodon(?) tooth, Miocene from the Linxia Basin of China. I am wondering if it could be a Amebelodon, Platybelodon or Choerolophodon. Help please.

Good evening folks. I just received an order of fossils from China and haven't opened it yet. Took it out of my mailbox with a rag (which I immediately threw away) and put the package in a large baggie. The fossils did not come from an infected location but I have no idea about the shipping trail / process. The only thing I know about viruses is to avoid people and things that might have been exposed. Am I being overly concerned?

I went to a construction site near a big lake (Dian lake 滇池) at Kunming, China (Although this city is famous for Cambrian fossil) This place is going to construct some apartments. A lot of workers pass by without realizing they are trace fossil. it's geological map is: from https://www.osgeo.cn/map/m02db the location is around: from IOS's map So it suppose be from Quaternary, right? (but I am not sure if lake trace fossil can produce trace fossil like below) And I found some trace fossil: and some other stuff i am not so sure: and last picture is ripple mark If it is from the lake, that would be a nice vacation place in summer!

This is the second from my unidentified draw. It comes (Yichang???), Hubei, China. It's from the Ordovician(?) period. This is a negative of the Trilobite.

Hello folks. I've been digging through my "unidentified" draw again and came across eight Trilobite requiring identification. I cannot seem to locate my documentation, so, I am humbly requesting your help once again. The information I do have on this Trilobite is it comes from Yunnan, China and is from the Cambrian period. It measures 25mm x 17mm.

Dear Forum I acquired this fossil today from a Gentleman, who is collecting fossils since many years and bought it in the 80s or 90s. As far as he remembers is the fossil originally from china. Would be very interested to know the species and any other information.

Real frog (Liaobatracus sp.)?
MohammadAAK posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hello, I was offered a couple of fossils and this is the second one to the previous keichousaurus post. It’s a fossil frog, genus Liaobatracus, from early Cretaceous, Yixian formation, Liaoning province, China, exported in the 80s. 20 cm. Any ideas whether it’s a genuine piece. These are the best photos I was able to get. Best wishes -
Hello all, i was offered this keichousaurus and was wondering if someone has an idea if it’s authentic, judging from the photos only. The seller describes it as museum quality. And it’s supposed to be seven inches. These are the best photos I was able to get. It is supposedly from China from an old collection exported in the 80s. Best wishes

Hi All, hope everyone had a great Christmas. I hope someone can help, I recently received a quantity of egg shells, originating from China. They are from Oviraptor supposedly. My question is that some have nodes, others have ridges, some have something in between. Is this just something that differs from individual to individual or from species to species? A search on Google images show a selection of both nodes or ridges so I am none the wiser.
