From the album: Fossildude's Middle Devonian Hamilton Group Fossils
Eldredgeops rana - Devonian Windom Shale. Buffalo, NY. Trying out the new air scribe and air eraser. Seems to be working fairly well. Note the black dots along the edges of the axial lobe. It is believed that these are preserved chromatophores, that allowed the trilobites to "change color" for camouflage purposes. NOTE: Specimen was moistened to show color differentiation better.

I've been working in rocks from the Middle Devonian Windom Shale of Central NY. Although I've found some different "fossils/marine invertrabrates". They are all "mud casts". These two are unknown to me. I posted some photos of my finds on another forum and someone came forward with a comment about the first of the two. It was "Guilielmites umbonatus Geinitz??" I tried looking on the internet and came up the the second photo, which looks similar to me...at the following link: Do you know similar case about pseudo fossil Guilielmites Geinitz ? (researchgate.net) But this article is fr

Hello friends! I've had some time to sort through, organize and take photos of fossils from my recent trip to DSR. I have also attempted to ID some of my finds using Lindsey's Devonian Paleontology of NY but have found doing so with the bivalves especially difficult, I'm not sure if that is up to me not having experience with then, them being generally harder to differentiate or a bit of both. Starting off with the lophophorates: 1. This brachiopod is a Chonetid, I initially just thought that it was Devonchonetes which is common at the site but looking closer it looked much more

Both carapace valves as well as the almost complete telson are present. The telson is wrapped underneath the carapace and one valve is underneath the other.

I found this a few weeks ago at DSR on the NYPS trip to madison county. Im having some trouble ID’ing it. Doesn't seem to be anything like it in Karl A. Wilson’s Field Guide to the Devonian Fossils of New York

Hello all. Found this oddity in a small piece of shale, adjacent to the northern branch of Smoke Creek. I believe this is Windom Shale, Hamilton Group, Middle Devonian. It reminds me of something, but I can't place it. Any ideas are welcome. Pelecypod was my first impression, but ... ? EDIT: to add size. 6 mm in length.

I'm thinking this might be a shard of bivalve shell, but I'm having a hard time placing it in the context of the possible taxa. Just wanted to post for ideas before I toss it in case it's something more notable. DSR, Windom Shale, Moscow Fm., Middle Devonian. Scale in mm.

This one has me stumped. I think it is the body whorl of a gastropod (DSR, Middle Devonian, Hamilton Group, Moscow Fm., Windom Shale). It is smashed, but the full circumference of the whorl is present, which means the aperture has to be on the left (which is consistent with the direction of the growth lines) (see arrow). If that is the case, there should be a shallow furrow or ridge in the center of the whorl running parallel with the cords and perpendicular to the growth lines if it were something like Mourlonia or even a Bellarophontacea. I see no evidence of such, not even on the crimpe

I purchased this from Matt Heaton, who to the best of his recollection got it from Dan Cooper. It was sold as Bellacartwrightia whiteleyi, but that species apparently doesn't come from the Windom Shale.
