A complete, if yet unprepped, specimen of the late Triassic coelacanth, Diplurus newarki. Not sure how I will go about prepping this, but I have a few options. Late Triassic, (Rhaetian). Lockatong Formation, Newark Supergroup, North Bergen, NJ.© © 2015 Tim Jones

Hi everyone. I found strange leaf. Leaf venation is unusial. Can it be somebody's wing? Length 53 mm. Russia, Chelyabinsk region. Late triassic or early jurassic.

A new paper is available online: Oliver W. M. Rauhut; Femke M. Holwerda; Heinz Furrer (2020). A derived sauropodiform dinosaur and other sauropodomorph material from the Late Triassic of Canton Schaffhausen, Switzerland. Swiss Journal of Geosciences 113 (1): Article number 8. doi:10.1186/s00015-020-00360-8. Schleitheimia is the first latest Norian-Rhaetian sauropodiform to be described from mainland Europe (Camelotia is a sauropodiform, but comes from the British Isles), considering that Triassic sauropodomorph cladistic diversity from Central Europe was thought to be d

Hi, If anyone is familiar with dinosaur names, the sauropodomorph informally known for a long time as "Thotobolosaurus" has been finally described and named in this paper: Claire Peyre de Fabrègues; Ronan Allain (2020). Kholumolumo ellenbergerorum, gen. et sp. nov., a new early sauropodomorph from the lower Elliot Formation (Upper Triassic) of Maphutseng, Lesotho. Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology in press: e1732996. doi:10.1080/02724634.2019.1732996. Kholumolumo is the latest addition to an increasing number of sauropodomorph taxa from the lower Elliot For

Date of Trip: June 2018 Location: Quay Co., NM, USA Age: Late Triassic Formation: Redonda This was the second of a number of hunting trips across the country this summer (the first was Silex, MO, reported earlier). This will be the Triassic Vertebrate report from this trip. Triassic invertebrate report will have to wait (perhaps exciting news ). Triassic plants and Cretaceous inverts from the same general locality will also be reported later. These are finds from a coarse-grained fluvial deposit rich in fish remains. In one layer, ganoid fish scales w

This skull will need to be prepared to find out what it is. It looks a bit too narrow to be from Diplurus newarki, (although, it could be) . It could also possibly be from the early ray finned fish, Turseodus sp. or Synorichthys sp., which are known from the same strata. Newark Supergroup, Newark Basin, Late Triassic, Lockatong Formation.

Hi, I found this tooth and possibly the upper mandible in an arroyo in New Mexico in a place called Copper Canyon. It is about 5.5 miles from Ghost Ranch. The layer is most likely late triassic chinle formation but it's on a major fault. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Guys, I recently found one plate like tooth in dolomite erratic, probably Late Triassic age. It is 6 mm length and has rough texture that is not typical to chimaeroids. I guess it could be mouth plate of sturgeon (its mouth opens when four plates spread in the sides) but I did not find information about isolated these elements. Some very similar teeth are shown in interent pictures and are dating by Early Jurassic: http://www.darwincountry.org/explore/005818.html?CatAdd=5818&sid= Please help to identify this specific taxon of fishes with the same app

Dear Guys, I recently found the triangle bone in dolomite erratic of Varena town, South Lithuania, it is 4 mm length. It has the wider growths in the lower sides and straight blunt bony growth in the top. The dolomite also has poorly visible calcified lenses (maybe oncolites?). The erratic is typical to Triassic arid conditions and should belong to Late Triassic epoch because frogs from Early Triassic are found only in Madagascar island.

Coelophysis Dinosaur tooth fossils SITE LOCATION: Bull Canyon Formation, Dockum Group, San Miguel Co., New Mexico TIME PERIOD: Late Triassic (203-196 Million Years Ago) Data: Coelophysis is an extinct genus of coelophysid theropod dinosaur that lived approximately 203 to 196 million years ago during the latter part of the Triassic Period in what is now the southwestern United States and also in South Africa and Zimbabwe. Coelophysis was a small, slenderly-built, ground-dwelling, bipedal carnivore, that could grow up to 3 m (9.8 ft) long -

Footprint? New Jersey Late Triassic/Early Jurassic Continued
Kurufossils posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello, this is a part 2 of my last thread with some of my other finds that I've found this at a site in new jersey where some footprints have been found from the Late Triassic/Early Jurassic, I am unsure about if these are footprints of sorts, any help will be appreciated thank you! -

A new amphibian-related paper is available online: Jason D. Pardo; Bryan J. Small; Adam K. Huttenlocker (2017). Stem caecilian from the Triassic of Colorado sheds light on the origins of Lissamphibia. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. in press. doi:10.1073/pnas.1706752114. The discovery of Chinlestegophis is a groundbreaking development in recording the early evolution of extant amphibians because it not only fills a gap in the fossil record of early lissamphibians but also throws a wrench into the hypothesis of a temnospon

Hi all, Maybe this find is past identification due to erosion, but i thought it may be of interest to others Length is around 8 inches I can see similar lines to the shell / tail feature on the right of the 'solid' part.. Wondering if anyone has any idea what it might be? is it two separate fossils perhaps? All the best Ben
