Hi All, I took a trip (I live just outside of Philly) down to Calvert Cliffs on the MD side to spend a couple days hunting. I was able to visit the VA side of the Calvert Formation back on Labor day, and was excited to see the MD cliffs. First day I spent all of my time at Matoaka Beach hunting solo. Tried to access another section of beach later that day, however it required hiking through some thick vegetation, and I was losing light, so I gave up. Second day I met up with the Delaware Valley Paleontology Society to visit a few sites with CHAPTours. Wound up visiting 3 different beaches, and finished off back at Matoaka (I didn't know we'd be going here otherwise I'd have picked a different beach the first day). Overall, I had pretty good outings both days. Surprisingly I didn't find a single shark tooth, but lots of amazingly preserved bivalves and gastropods. Some photos from the beach/cliffs from both days. From the top of the cliffs: Bivalve fossils were everywhere. Group shot with a sampling of finds.

Large Platyostoma niagarense gastropods were plentiful in the Waldron Shale that I collected in this early Autumn. But these tiny gastropods kept showing up and I can not find their identity. In the first picture, a P. niagarense is the large specimen. The smaller gastropods next to it are what confuse me. Maybe they are just small Platyostomas. But subjectively, their spiral is higher. And their coloration is different.

Today I spotted a bit of ecphora shell exposed in a sandy/clay stream bank. When I removed it from the bank I was shocked to find it was whole and HUGE! As far as I know it is pretty rare to find these in unbroken condition and this is the largest one I've ever come across. I got it home and started cleaning it off. Most of the sand/clay washed away easily with gentle running water and a soft bristled brush, but the portion that was exposed to the air seems to have cemented itself to the shell and turned a whitish color, while the portion that was not exposed was dark brown and softer. I've picked away at the "cemented" stuff (sorry, I don't really know the correct terms to describe this) with dental picks and made some progress but I am worried I'll damage the shell doing this. Can anyone offer any advice on how to finish cleaning this off without damaging the shell? Thanks. I've included a few photos and I'm happy to provide more detail if needed

What is this cross section of a 5 cm tall gastropod from the Pennsylvanian Naco Formation of Arizona? The photo of whole gastropods that are similar and are found in the same formation at the Kohl’s Ranch site. Photo by Caty Sandoval. What are these? This may help (I have a good guess): https://www.dallaspaleo.org/resources/Documents/PGUPFT 2a Mollusca first half.pdf
