Hello everyone, I'm happy to be back with one more of many questions I will have. This was part of the bins of rocks I inherited. I mentioned on my last post they came from my neighbor and family friend growing up and the man who sparked my interest in fossil science but did not reveal his identity out of respect for his surviving daughter but after speaking with her she said her dad would be honored and said absolutely. My neighbor growing up was Dallas Lemmon and he was a professor of geology at Western New Mexico University for many years and is the one who left me a few bins of his collect

The Devonian period is known as "The Age of Fish", but could also be known as "The Age of Brachiopods." In the Early / Lower Devonian, brachiopods reached the height of their diversity towards its end in the Emsian. We see the ancestral groups occurring, lingulids, craniids, orthids, protorthids, pentamerids, rhynchonellids and strophomenids, as well as the later successful groups we have seen before such as atrypids, athyrids and orthotetids, plus the rise of spiriferids, spiriferinids and productids and the beginning of the terebratulids. By the end of the Devonian , several of these g

Picked this up at a dry land site some time back and forgot about it. While going through my fossil boxes recently, I re-found it. It came out of the Tamiami Fm. near Sarasota with a lot of other Pliocene/Pleistocene material. There seemed to be some Miocene mixed in there as well, so I am not sure where to start with this one. Does anyone know what it is? Thanks!

Hi all - I found this in a creek in Central Texas. Looks like a rudist to me. There’s a good amount of detail visible on it, so I was wondering if anyone might be able to ID it down to genus (or species)? Thanks so much!

Found some (what i presume are) bivalves on the same hunt i found my ironstone! I decided to post them separately cause i wanna be as active as possible without overcrowding anything. They’re a little over 2 centimeters, my estimate at least (i’m terrible at math and not familiar with the metric system so bare with me-)

Fossil clam found at Big Brook - first of these I've ever seen, is it anything interesting?

A bivalve fossil I found at Big Brook yesterday. First one like it I've ever seen, so thought it might be something interesting. -

From Burches Ferry, outside of Pamplico, South Carolina. Wondering how far down it can be taxonomically ID'd. Found in association with many belemnites. Thanks!

Hello everyone, I visited a beach in the Netherlands and I collected some things that I thought had the chance to be fossilized. I want to ask if the next specimens in the pictures I will post are fossilized seashells, modern ones, just rocks? And what kind of seashells they are in case they are fossilized. Thank you! I will post them separately in the replies.

Hello everyone, I just came back from a short trip to Florida to visit some relatives who recently moved out there. I knew very little about fossil hunting in Florida but with the generous help of a number of forum members got to learn a lot. On one of the days while visiting, we decided to visit Venice. While there I did end up picking up some tiny shark and ray teeth, interesting modern shells but nothing particularly special, once we got off the beach, though, I noticed a pile of shell material in sandy matrix near the parking lot I initially thought it was just the same modern st
