The old Granton Quarry site, located in North Bergen, New Jersey was a working quarry that has produced fauna from the Upper Triassic Lockatong Formation part of the Newark Super Group. Underneath a basalt cap, in beds that are tilted, are shales and sandstones deposited in an ancient tropical lake bed. Biodiversity is far from rich. The most common vertebrate fossil found is Diplurus newarki, a small coelacanth, usually 2-4 inches in length. Other fossils include Estheria ovate, a clam-shaped shrimp-like crustacean. Rare remains of reptiles have also been found at the site. Deve

A pair of fish on one small slab. I believe the ray-finned fish is either Synorichthys sp. or Turseodus sp. You can see the body of a Diplurus newarki just below the other fish scales. Late Triassic, (Rhaetian) Lockatong Formation, Newark Supergroup, North Bergen, New Jersey.© © 2015 Tim Jones
