I found these in kinnekulle sweden. The age is ordovician. Does anyone know the species
-
Hello, A colleague of mine shared some pictures of an interesting rock she found. It was found loose by a creek in the Denver area. It looks to me very much like an inner era, although it may well be something else. None of us are able to positively identify it. I'm sure someone here can confirm whether or not it is a fossil, and what it might be. The creek in question flows from the east, and my understanding is it would have to be a tertiary or quaternary fossil if it is indeed a fossil.

Hey Fossil gang, I went out into the hillside forest next to my dorm and found some shells scattered about. It's very possible they're simply snail shells - I'm very novice. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Hi all! I've always found fossils to be quite interesting but never took the time to really get into them so I'm useless at identifying them. Well, recently I went to Galveston beach and found this item washed up after a storm. It's small (about 2cm across) and feels rather fragile/thin. I've never seen anything like it besides an ammonite but then those are always cast in rock, I believe, and this feels just like a fragile shell that I could probably crush if I accidentally stood on it. This may just be some sort of strange shell, but some googling hasn't led me to anything other than the ammonite. Is this a fossil at all? If so, what type? I appreciate you taking your time to help out a curious mind! - Mia

Recently bought this online wasn’t that expensive and wanting to get you guys opinion on it as I don’t have many of the pieces in this in my collection

Hi guys. Looking for help on this one. Found it this weekend in a west central Indiana creek. Largely glacial till although this was found not far from an outcrop of bedrock (Early carb.) and the matrix of this specimen appears similar to the bedrock matrix. I’m thinking nautiloid. If so, thoughts on genus? Was thinking vestinautilus, but there appears to be more suture lines on this specimen then on the picture in my field guide. A few of the pieces are “removable” thanks to me not realizing what I had when I first picked it up. In the end though, helps with seeing the various aspects a bit more clearly. Can’t see umbilicus. Blue line in one of the pics is pointing to what I think is the siphuncle. Measurement marks are In cm. Thanks for your help

Look guys I have a... well its definitely a something? Is it a plant, the top of a crinoid, a broken tooth, a really tiny volcano??? No idea. And as a bonus I have no idea where it came from either. It was given to me ages when I was a kid. So if you've got any ideas on what the heck it might be, I'd love to hear 'em! Thanks!

Hey everyone, New user here, very minor experience with fossils. I was curious if anyone would be interested in possibly identifying some specimens from Lake Michigan, from North Shore Beach in Ferrysburg, Michigan. It's on the West Coast of Michigan, but it would be the Eastern side of the Lake. Hope that isn't too confusing and I hope that I find you all well during these trying times. I have a couple more as well, if it's cool. Thanks for reading. Here are my humble hypotheses: 1: Some sort of Petoskey/Charlevoix stone or similar perhaps. 2: Coral? 3? 4? 5? 6? 7/8: Arrowhead shards or shards from producing an arrowhead? 9? 10? 11? 12/13: Horn Coral with a zebra mussel shell inside it?

Hi I took only my second trip out fossil hunting over the weekend and found what to me are some great finds. Any help with ID would be greatly appreciated, i believe the vertebrae to be a pretty good example of an ichthyosaur vertebrae but other than that i am pretty clueless. These were all found at Aust Cliffs near Bristol in the UK.

Receiving an unprep Acanthopyge sp, the tail does not look like the typical Acanthopyge tail from just doing a quick image search. Definitely looks lichid but I'm wondering does this piece match any of the described species of Acanthopyge? Thats if it is one in the first place of course. Below is some information. AGE Middle Devonian (~393 Million Years) LOCATION Jbel Issomour, South Morocco FORMATION Jbel Issomour Middle Devonian Outcrops Would like to get this specimen preped one day as due to a medical condition I cannot prep and reveal anything further myself.

I found this bone in Southwest Florida. Any ideas on what it is? It appears to be complete. It’s 6” in length

I recently collected this plate out of a block of shale full of Alethopteris fronds from the spoils of a coal mine in Pennsylvania. You can see some of the Alethopteris on this piece. My initial impression is that these are seeds, with Trigonocarpus serving as the kinda catch-all for Pennsylvanian fern seeds. However, I have never seen an example of Trigonocarpus that has these markings. Both of these fossils have little, golf ball-like dents on them. The fossils measure 4cm and 2.5cm respectively. Has anyone seen something like this before? Do these markings mean that these are something different than Trigonocarpus? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
