I have here what I suspect may be a squished conularid, but I'm not certain. It is from the Middle Devonian Oatkacreek Formation, a Marcellus Shale member, Hamilton Group, from near Morrisville, NY. Thank you for your help.

Compared to 2014, this season has been a bit of a disappointment as far as finding complete trilobites. True, I found a couple nice Greenops at Deep Springs Road, including one at the TFF gathering last spring. Figuring I had one last chance to make good before winter snows hit, I traveled up to eastern Madison County in Central Upstate New York to an exposure of the Middle Devonian Skaneateles Formation, part of the Hamilton Group. It was my second time there this year and the last time produced one of my best Dipleura dekayi cephalons. I hoped to do at least as well on this, what is likely, my final trip there of the season. I arrived before ten in the morning. Day was crisp- high thirties to low forties, sunny. There were a number of sandstone blocks lying at the foot of the exposure I didn't recall seeing the last time I was there. I proceeded to split these and the second block yielded this: the thorax and pygidium of a Dipleura, the best Dipleura thorax/pygidium I've found so far this year. Soon after I found a partially exposed cephalon of another Dipleura. A little careful chiseling and repair work I was able to expose the whole thing:

On Monday I visited a site north of Morrisville, Madison County, NY. It is a roadcut exposure of the Marcellus Shale, the lowest part of the Hamilton Group. The bottom part is an exposure of the Bridgewater Member and the top is the Oatkacreek Formation. It was my third time there and each visit has presented a different experience: In the spring of 2013 my companion and I explored the talus slopes that cover most of the exposure and found a number of specimens of the top-shaped gastropod, Bembexia subcomarginata along with brachiopods and bivalves. I returned in the spring of 2014, this time exploring the shale outcrops above the talus slope and picked a number of Bembexia right from the shale wall. On Monday I climbed the steep talus slope again and dug into the shale exposure at the top and discovered a thin bed that was rich in well preserved examples of the tiny corkscrew-shaped gastropod, Paleozygopleura. Also found a number of Bembexia, plus bivalves and brachiopods including Grammysia bisculata and Spinocyrtia granulosa, and one pretty large bivalve with both valves preserved that I first thought was a concretion, and the smooth-shelled nautiloid, Michelinoceras.. This is a photo of the road cut with my vehicle in the foreground for scale.
