Hi Guys, I'm taking advantage of this period of staying at home to recheck and better identify the fossils from my collection. Someone can tell me the genus and species of these triassic fossils of Epidaurus. Thanks in advance and please stay home if you can !!

Hello, I have recently bought this fossil as an Acrocoelites oxyconus, from the toarcien of Tournadous, France. But after seeing the photos of Ludwigia, and others in the internet, it seems that it is not Acrocoelites oxyconus. The fossil looks to be broken and glued: Thanks!

Opalized yabby button(crayfish gastrolith)? ..or something else?
katherine1977 posted a topic in Fossil ID
This came in a parcel of opal from Lightning Ridge. I have cut the bottom and a little of the side to be able to see inside better. The smaller opalized top portion is 8x10mm, the bottom opalized portion is 12x10mm. I have been told this may be a yabby button, however I’m not sure because all the photos I’ve seen of yabby buttons don’t look a whole lot like this. I appreciate any feedback, and feel free to ask any questions:) thanks! -

From the album: Late Jurassic belemnites of European Russia
My biggest belemnite guard in terms of volume, 13 cm long and 5 cm wide, and it's not even complete -

Guardless preservation in Shmelovka allows to see protoconchs, this one is only 0,3 mm wide -

One of the rarer sites with dissolved calcite, Shmelovka features guardless phragmacones, which you can even sift for -

These are typical Mod-Oxfordian finds, small (2-3 cm) fusiform belemnite guards -

Lots of belemnites in Peski quarry, but they are either small or partial. This is a rare big Callovian (?) specimen -

Bronnitsy is the place to search for articulated guards and phragmacones. They are rare, but I hope to find a good one some day. -

Lots of nature lovers visit the site to collect belemnites. They are not large and require someone to actually dig holes more or less frequently, otherwise they are quickly depleted. Here are the biggest specimens, 6-8 cm long -

Greens Mill Run finds, including baleen whale fossils
fossil_lover_2277 posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Made a recent trip to Greens Mill Run and got quite a few nice fossils, particularly fossil bone. Large fragment of a Pliocene baleen whale lower jaw bone, whale rib fragment, baleen whale tympanic bullas, unfused whale vertebral epiphysis, Chesapectens jeffersonius, other Chesapectens spp., clams, etc. All collected in-situ, all from the Yorktown formation. Also quite a few sharks teeth collected from gravel bars. Also one pic, the one with the belemnites lined across the top, is all in-situ Cretaceous stuff. Great trip, digging the stuff up was a nice change from all the gravel sifting haha- 2 replies

Belemnitella americana from the Maastrtichian of Delaware. This one is strangely rounded and scarred. Looks like something bit it and it lived long enough to heal over.© copyright 2021 Heather J M Siple

Found this a few weeks ago in the Walnut Formation (Texas Cretaceous) in a spot where I know belemnites have been found. It looked remarkably like the belemnites I found in England (Jurassic) because of the shallow recess and the shape, but this has these weird teardrops. I dismissed it initially , thinking it was too light for a fossil, plus, these teardrops kind of make it look more like just a woody plant something or other. So then I dropped it and it broke. Looked at it under the microscope and it is for sure not a woody plant something! It is crystalized inside so maybe that is why it i

I’ve had Big Brook and Ramanessin on my shark tooth hunting list for a while and finally made it up to both today. It’s a 6-hour roundtrip drive from where I live and with the days still pretty short this time of year, I had originally planned to spend my limited time just at Big Brook. After an hour-and-a-half of mostly striking out on shark teeth there, however, I decided to head over to Ramanessin, which both @Bob-ay and @PaleoNoel had recommended. Luckily, the two spots are only about 10 minutes apart, so I didn’t waste much time in transit, and I was rewarded with much better gravels at R

Found this belemnite in ignaberga sweden. The mark reminds me of some type of bite mark? Maybe shark?

I have noticed when prepping swedish belemites that when i remove matrix and shell fragments small holes come up. And its very annoying. Is there any cause to this? Is it just how i prep? I hope u can see it in the pictures. Should i polish it? Hope that someone knows the cause

My boys and I went fossil hunting in Big Brook New Jersey and can’t identify this one we found. It looks like a worm inside a Belemnite fragment but was told Belemnite fragments are hollow.
