    Brittle star? - Hamilton Gp

    I found this a few years ago, 2021 or so. Anybody know if this is an brittle star or something else? The supposed brittle star is attached to a brachiopod. Location found is Suedberg, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. Hamilton Group, probably Mahantango Formation. In this image you can see on the lower left side of the brachiopod a hole made by boring- may or may not be the work of the potential brittle star. In the above image as well you can make out where some of the arms are, though the image is bad quality. In the next image it is somewhat easier to see the individual arms- I had much better lighting. I can take more pictures if requested.
  12. I found this specimen in a dried creek-bed in Pennsylvania, USA. I previously found beautiful petrified wood pieces in the same exact spot (I assume they are petrified wood based on some research I did). The matrix of this specimen has similarities to some of the petrified wood pieces I came across while exploring that creek-bed. From my untrained eye, it looks like tiny creatures latched onto this wood before petrification. There appears to be 3 of the same species all sitting closely together. One of the three looks like it was cut in half at some point and now displays a perfect cross section...possibly of its nervous system...?! There are lines trailing behind the circles (for lack of better words), giving the appearance of tentacles or antennas of some sort?

    Eusthenodon bourdoni

    Diagnosis—Tristichopterid sarcopterygian referable to Eusthenodon and differing from the type species by the combination of: (1) a lack of contact between posterior supraorbital and lacrimal such that the jugal contributes to the orbital margin, and (2) contact between posterior supraorbital and intertemporal in dermal view. Downs, J. P., J. Barbosa, and E. B. Daeschler. 2021. A new species of Eusthenodon (Sarcopterygii, Tristichopteridae) from the Upper Devonian (Famennian) of Pennsylvania, U.S.A., and a review of Eusthenodon taxonomy. Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology.

    Pennsylvania talon print?

    A short while ago I posted similar pictures of what I think is a talon print. Someone asked what type of stone it was in so I posted pictures. I found this in Clearfield county PA.
  16. Terminal Stareasaurus

    Reptile skin?

    Any ideas? My first thought was reptile dermis but probably more like some kind of fan plant closed up. Clearfield County PA.
  17. Hello everyone So recently I’ve been studying up on Catskill formation sites in Pennsylvania. Many of these sites are exposures along highways, and I was wondering how I should go about collecting at them. Is it legal to collect along highways in PA? Can I park on the highway if there’s plenty of room or should I find an off ramp/side road to park along? Thanks for the help! Owen
  18. I was just collecting out at the Ambridge site over the weekend and among the hundreds of ferns I found, I pulled out this piece which appears to be rolled up one. It especially seems like a fern given that there’s a Calamites stem just to the bottom right. I posted on the Reddit fossil ID forum and people are saying it’s a goniatite but I’m really not seeing it and I also can’t find anything online saying something like that would even be there. I would love some insight as to what it could be regardless, because I’ve been to this site a few times now and haven’t found something like this before so it’s probably pretty rare regardless.

    Dipleura dekayi

    From the album: Mahantango Formation

    Dipleura dekayi Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania
  21. Hi everyone. I was up in northwest Pennsylvania a few days ago seeing some friends and found this wild thing on their property. It's not my usual hunting grounds and I wasn't particularly looking for fossils at the time, so I never bothered to do research on the area. What I can tell you is that it was found in northern Crawford County, PA, which I believe is Devonian (but may also be Mississippian). Nearby were some brachiopods in sandstone. If extra pictures are needed, just let me know. Please help!

    Carboniferous Fish? Curiosity

    I just don't know what this thing is. It's from the Glenshaw Formation of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Some is below the matrix, but what is showing is about 1 cm top to bottom and 1.5 cm across. I believe it is Brush Creek Limestone and it looks like part of a fish spine to me. As always all help is appreciated. Thanks.

    Pennsylvanian Tooth-Shaped Fossils

    Hello! I think I've just about tapped out most of my local hunting spots. Yet a week ago I found a couple fossils that look like teeth. Please let me know what you think. They are 1.5 cm wide by 1 cm long, Pennsylvanian (Carboniferous), Glenshaw Formation and from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.
  24. Hello! I am a newbie fossil hunter, and I am asking for some ID help. My son and I visited the Kinzers Formation near Lancaster, PA , to look for fossils in the Cambrian shale. We didn't find much, which seems consistent with peoples' experiences recently, but did find traces of something that we haven't been able to positively identify. The attached photos of the specimen come from a piece of shale the we split. There's a radial pattern of darker flecks on the left side of the rock, each about 1 cm long. The tape measure is next to a longer, darker shape about 1 cm wide and about 6.5 cm long (although broken off on the right). Hopefully these pictures are helpful, but I can get out my SLR if more detailed pix would be helpful. Thanks for your thoughts!! Kerry
  25. Yesterday me and my apprentice @ChasingGhostsYT scouted out some Kinzers localities in Lancaster with great success! Here are some of are finds. Top to Bottom. Mesonacis sp. (first one In my collection and the first one I’ve ever collected partial or complete) Both sides of the Mesonacis little Olenllous sp. both sides of the Olenllous sp.
