From the album: Fossil Collection: DC Area and Beyond
Ficus sp. White Bird, ID Latah Formation Miocene -
Hello, I have this fossil from the Middle Ordovician Hope shales, Leigh, Shropshire, UK. It was labeled as a carpoid "Anfesta sp.". However I realize that it has complete bilateral symmetry and no plate-like structure, even for a carpoid. Besides, I googled "Anfesta" and that is a Ediacaran organism with triradial symmetry, so evidently incorrect. What could this be? I can't find anything like it online, but maybe a brachiopod internal mold?

Hi all, Would it be possible to help identify fossil in the photo for my son please. It was found on Charmouth Beach, Dorset UK last month. At first we thought it was part of a large Ammonite but the edges seem to pointy so wondering if it’s a part of a vertebrae? Any help would be appreciated as he’s only 6 and keeps asking me what I think it is and I don’t know 🤷♂️ 🤣 Thanks in advance!

Howdy everyone! I was hoping y'all could help identify or at least give a broad idea of what kind of animal this beautiful little claw could have belong to. The claw was found in Harding County, South Dakota (Hell Creek formation) and is said to likely come from a large lizard or amphibian. Any thoughts? As always, thank you guys so much! This forum is truly invaluable.

Hi! Sorry if this is out of sudden but recently i came across a landslide and i found this fossil fragments, i have been struggling to identify which animal could they belong, the place is between 2 formations (early pleistocene-late miocene) and while is not in north america, we do share some extinct fauna (Pleistocene-miocene mammals), i hope i can get some hints (some have told me they resemble a rib fragment but i am not sure).

So i found this Ammonite in one of my trips to a late jurassic/early cretaceous marine formation. I posted this same specimen but without preparation and they tell me that is impossible to know without the center area or the inner whorls. Now I prepped this Ammonite and the ribs on the inner whorls are visible. If anybody can tell about the genus or species of this Ammonite i'll be very greatful. Thanks!

I recieved these ammonites, along with many other items, from an old collection. I have no idea where they come from, although the previous owner was Dutch, so I'd expect them to be from somewhere in Europe. I also suspect that both pieces come from the same place, as they have the same shell imprint in their matrix. The collection also came with heavily pyritised nautilus fossils (some of which had pyrite disease) which may or may not come from the same location. Ammonite 1: I tried preparing this one, but the matrix contains too much pyrite.

Hello everyone! Here is a nice raptor tooth from Montana, JRF Hill county. Another collector and I were wondering what the species is likely. Especially with those ridges. Back then bought as a Saurornitholestes.

I have just bought these from a collector and the labels are a little jumbled. I have left them in the section they were in if there is a double set in one and no label in another! I have enough labels to go round a little help with where is needed! I can obviously take more photos if required. There is some beautiful ones in here, I am really pleased with them.

Hello I found the fossil in the first two pictures a few seasons ago. I suspect it's a tooth. And the last picture was a fossil I found that was a caramel color but I sanded it and it's turning white and sounds like a piece of porcelain when tapped against a stone .Can anyone help me ID both please. Found in the Peace River 2020

Hi Guys! I finally cleaned up the last batch of rocks from my papa and grandma‘s estate. I know from my last post that I’m not supposed to get some of them wet but they were filthy so I had to clean them before bringing them into the house. Any feedback you have is appreciated. if you saw one of my previous posts, you’ll know that my grandparents collected rocks in Arizona, Wisconsin and Illinois. Most of these are probably from Arizona. I think the one piece of orangish petrified wood #3 is very cool. I would love to know if any of the other ones are petrified wood. To me it’s sort of looked like a pork tenderloin when I was cleaning it today! Maybe that’s just because I didn’t stop for lunch. Ha ha. It was so fun to spend time looking at each and every one. I have a critter living in one of them. Some sort of insect. I did my best trying to encourage him to get the heck out today using water and air but I might have to pull out the tweezers tomorrow! Thanks for looking and have a great week…

This is being sold as a Thescelosaurus toe. I'm having doubts as I've never seen a Thescelosaurus claw this curved, most are far more flat on the ventral side. Any opinions? From Hell Creek formation, Jordan, Montana. Size 10cm / 3.9"

This is being sold as a Pachycephalosaurus tooth from Hell Creek Formation, Montana, USA. Size 10mm / 0.4" I find it hard to distinguish between Pachycephalosaurus, Thescelosaurus and Ankylosaur/Nodosaur teeth, is this really Pachy?

Found in the badlands of Alberta. I put it in my hand to show you the size. If anyone has any idea it would be greatly appreciated. What dinosaur would this I think leg bone belong to?

I have recently bought a mixed bag of random verts that I am wanting to use to make little kids boxes for my shop. I know there is many different types etc in here but I wondered if there is some general info that could be gleened, rough age, fish sizes are the longer ones from a specific part of the spine etc? They are just a little pocket money buy for the kids but the last thing I want to be doing is telling them wrong information! Thank you for your time
