On Monday I visited a site north of Morrisville, Madison County, NY. It is a roadcut exposure of the Marcellus Shale, the lowest part of the Hamilton Group. The bottom part is an exposure of the Bridgewater Member and the top is the Oatkacreek Formation. It was my third time there and each visit has presented a different experience: In the spring of 2013 my companion and I explored the talus slopes that cover most of the exposure and found a number of specimens of the top-shaped gastropod, Bembexia subcomarginata along with brachiopods and bivalves. I returned in the spring of 2014, this time exploring the shale outcrops above the talus slope and picked a number of Bembexia right from the shale wall. On Monday I climbed the steep talus slope again and dug into the shale exposure at the top and discovered a thin bed that was rich in well preserved examples of the tiny corkscrew-shaped gastropod, Paleozygopleura. Also found a number of Bembexia, plus bivalves and brachiopods including Grammysia bisculata and Spinocyrtia granulosa, and one pretty large bivalve with both valves preserved that I first thought was a concretion, and the smooth-shelled nautiloid, Michelinoceras.. This is a photo of the road cut with my vehicle in the foreground for scale.

I want to show you my fossils from a trip to Heidenheim / Germany . Maybe somebody know the exact specie ? First Brachiopod
-
Hello, I am currently working on field samples of silicified Permian Brachiopods, trying to identify them where possible. The material is heavily fragmented, these are some of the best samples out the group and I am having trouble with the samples in the images below. I believe the 2nd image (labelled Brach 8) to be the dorsal valve of a large Productid (being 6.5cm at its widest point). The other I have no clue as to an identity. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Recent Acquisitions, Lots Of Brachiopods- I Can't Id Any Of Them
Pachyrhinosaurus posted a topic in Fossil ID
I was wondering if anyone could ID these fossils. I bought them yesterday at a flea market. First one is not a fossil. I don't have any extra information on it at all. These brachiopods were suppodedly collected in PA. I'm not very knowledgable on brachiopods so I was wondering if anyone could confirm this. I was also told they were the insides or as he said it- 'guts'. I was told that this is a piece of plant. No info on location but it does have impressions of a gastropod and bivalve in the matrix. Can't say much about this one other than it looks like a trilobite. More brachiopods, from Deer Lake PA. This coral might be from Florida. All of these were bought from the same dealer who sells mostly locally-found (South Central PA) rocks and all accompanied notes are from him also. Sorry about the poor picture quality. Bad lighting and shaky hands don't mix very well at all. EDIT: Thanks to the moderator who deleted my accidental duplicate of this thread.

Last Saturday, 5/23/15, a group of Fossil Forum members from five different northeastern states gathered at a quarry off Deep Springs Road in Lebanon, NY. to hunt for Middle Devonian marine fossils in shale from the Moscow Formation. This writer first visited the site, featured on Karl Wilson's website, in late spring of 2013 and since has returned six times. Last fall I introduced Tim (Fossildude19) to the site and we came up with the idea that this would be an excellent location for a TFF meet up. Tim made the connections and plans with other TFF members, a date was finally agreed upon, and this writer went to the site on the weekend of 5/3-5/4/15 to check out the parking situation and to gain permission from the owner, a local farmer. Primary features of the site are the sheer abundance of fossils (There are fossils on just about every rock.) and biodiversity, just about every type of marine fossil from the Middle Devonian can be found there. The site differs from others further west, especially those in the Finger Lakes/Buffalo region in that it was much closer to the Catskill Delta to the east, therefore the waters were probably cloudier and the fossil assemblage different from those further west. Corals are rare and bivalves, gastropods, and cephalopods more abundant than those other sites in Western New York. The site is located amidst lovely rolling hills, and fields of corn and cows grazing. Many Amish live in the area. Weather that day; cloudless blue sky, temperatures in the low sixties, was perfect for collecting. Tim, from Connecticut was the first to arrive. Then I showed up, then Mike (Pagurus) and his wife, Leila from Massachusetts, then Rob (snakebite 6769) and his family from Vermont, Carmine (xonenine) from Buffalo, NY., and finally Dave (Shamalama) from the Philadelphia area. Here's a group shot taken by this writer.

From the album: Arkona material
I was at a rock shop the other day and I saw these brachiopods from Arkona that were up for sale. I bought them since they were cheap and I never get the chance to travel to far-away places, especially Arkona, to get materials like these just to give my collection some diversity.

Mucrospirifer mucronatus from Madison Co., NY.

From the album: Middle Devonian
Mucrospirifer mucronatus (brachiopod) Middle Devonian Windom Shale Moscow Formation Deep Springs Road quarry Lebanon, NY. collected 6/22/15 Mucrospirifers are ridiculously common at this site, but they're so fragile collecting a complete one out of the matrix is next to impossible. Single valve specimens inevitably crack or shatter when you try to remove them from the rock. This one, fortunately, has both valves and is less flattened than most. -
