Early last month I made a post regarding a specimen that I had recovered from the Newark Supergroup that I had thought could be a possible trace fossil. After discussing the find on the forum and contacting some experts on Newark material, it was determined that the specimen was in fact not a fossil. However, this find greatly increased my interest in the fossil content of the Culpeper Basin. Today I decided to visit one of my favorite streams with the intent of fishing - but I could not help checking out some exposed rocks, knowing well that the stream would cut through Newark st

Hello all, A few months back I happened upon an intriguing rock while taking a walk in the woods. The main groove on the front of the rock struck me as a possible trace fossil (perhaps a worm burrow or a tunnel created by plant roots). I considered the possibility that it could potentially be a fossil since it was found in the Newark Supergroup of northern Virginia which is know to have some fossiliferous rocks. However, I fully expect that it is simply an artifact of weathering or that it has a geologic origin. Can any confirm whether it is a trace fossil or simply a case of weat

Triassic Cumnock Formation..Ginkgo leaves? And Plant Stems?
fossil_lover_2277 posted a topic in Fossil ID
Made another trip to the Triassic Cumnock formation of North Carolina. Split a LOT of shale, got what I believe are 3 nice plant fossils!!! (6 total since they split) One looks like a compression fossil of ginkgo leaves I think..the other 2 I think are plant vasculature. Can someone confirm this? I want to make sure these are actual fossils too, not pseudofossils... Also, I found some nodules as a part of one of the plant stems with odd bluish yellow minerals..not sure what that is. Thanks everyone!! -
Triassic Cumnock formation North Carolina Cyzicus and unknown plant?
fossil_lover_2277 posted a topic in Fossil ID
So I just made a trip to a publicly accessible creek that cuts through the Triassic Cumnock formation of North Carolina. Made a couple of nice finds. An unknown plant fossil, it’s worn down a bit, but anyone think they can ID? Also found a TON of what I believe are Cyzicus fossils, the largest are just shy of 1cm. Can anyone confirm these are Cyzicus? Thanks for the help!!!- 10 replies

Ptycholepis marshi Newberry. Early Jurassic, (Hettangian) Shuttle Meadow Fm. Hartford Basin, Connecticut. This is one of the more rare fish found in the Newark Supergroup. I more commonly find disarticulated scales. There is a very thin layer of shale over the caudal fins, and part of the body as well. Needs prep by air abrasion.© ©2012 Tim Jones

Triassic Bivalve Imprint from the Triassic Basin NC (~230 Ma)
AlexSciChannel posted a topic in Member Collections
Here is a picture of a Bivalve imprint I found whilst in a Creek in Western Wake County. I was in the Triassic Basin and they have fossils dating back around 230 Ma ± 2 ma. It was part of the Carnian Stage of the Triassic part of the bigger Newark Supergroup. I presume it is a freshwater genus but I don't hear much about freshwater Bivalves when it comes to Triassic fossils. -

Early Jurassic, East Berlin Formation. Connecticut. Some type of mineral has stained around where the fish fossil was - leaving a ghostly imprint/outline. Hence the picture title. Just a few bits of scale left hanging on to the fossil itself. This is a cool one, to me. Found on December 29th, 2013© © 2014 Tim Jones

Petrified wood trip in the Triassic of Pennsylvania
traveltip1 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
I enjoyed a productive weekend hunting petrified wood in the Triassic age, approximately 210 mya, Newark Supergroup of Pennsylvania. The first 2 photos show a single specimen's 2 sides, illustrating profuse checking in the wood, and a likely rotten dead limb knot at top. Specimen weighs 19 pounds.- 9 replies
