  1. My assistant and I checked out a place in Round Rock, Texas where the Del Rio, Buda, and Eagle Ford are close by. I read about the area in some online papers and I used Google maps to make a plan. I'm new and learning, and we try to explore a couple areas a week. (I'd be happy to share the address if any local folks want to check out the area.) We followed a drainage creek to a bigger creek, and then found some interesting creek walls. I was happy to see something besides Austin Chalk. We trekked through waist deep water and saw some interesting cliffs. We always find frogs, snakes, and lizards too. I didn't find any interesting fossils within the creek walls or floor. But I did find a rock on a gravel bar with some teeth in it. The big one is about 1/2 inch, and the small one is 1cm. I have no idea what they are from. I tried to take pictures using a ruler for scale. Using a little microscope camera I can see the little tooth has a cool serrated edge. Any ideas what the teeth could be from?

    Buda ammonite and unknown

    Found these in the Buda formation. in situ ammonite, it's less than an inch wide. and this unknown fossil. Maybe a echinoid but doesn't seem to to have a pattern like echinoids I'm used to. Reminds me of the algal fruits of Porocystis globularis found in the glen rose. Any help is appreciated

    First fossil of the (past) year

    Haven't really been able to do much fossil hunting between my job and a herniated disc that meant I couldn't bend down for many months now but finally felt good enough to go to a fairly easy location. This is a spot where the Buda formation meets the del Rio clay. Not sure which this came from but I think del Rio is more likely. Apologies for the image quality. My light died and I had to use a flashlight
  4. Took a little trip out to West Texas last weekend. My parents have friends who have ranches out near Balmorhea (great to have friends with ranches...everyone should have friends who have ranches!). I knew the general area was one I had wanted to go hunting for echinoids in the Boracho Formation (some very special echinoids not found in my area). I did my research on Google maps and the Texas Geology website, hoping I could pinpoint the right roadcuts! The first one we stopped at (I thought was the right formation) turned out to be a different formation, but I found some cool little brachiopods that are different than any i have encountered before and a couple of echinoids (phymosomas) and that was all for that little roadcut. Checked out a few more in the area but didn't find anything. Definitely didn't find what I was looking for! So on to our weekend at the ranch. The owner said he know of a "beach" on the ranch where "sea shells" were found. I was really surprised because on the Geology map it is all Igneous and Quaternary - nothing at all that looked Cretaceous fossiliferous. So we went driving around the ranch to the spot and to my GREAT surprise, we found an outcrop of Austin Chalk! I don't know how, but it was there! I found inoceramus clam parts and some of the most beautifully colored Exogyra erraticostata! So that was a really special spot! ( @grandpa -another "fossil that shouldn't be there!"- but it was!) The final day we were to head home, I convinced my parents to drive 30 miles further West before we headed back east for home. I knew there were supposed to be some more outcrops of the Boracho accessible so we took a little side trip and happily I found the formation I was looking for! And I was rewarded with a most LOVELY little Anorthopygus texanus echinoid! I initially thought it was a Coenholectypus transpecoensis (which was mainly what I was hoping to find -which I did not find!) but was happy to discover it was a more rare Anorthopygus! My mom found a nicely presereved Wahitaster wenoensis, so that was great too. I also found a phymosoma, but it's pretty beat up. A small section of a nautiloid and a nice bivalve which I think is a Lima wacoensis quadrangularis rounded out my day. So it was a good haul to West Texa! My best finds from Boracho /San Martine formation Anorthopygus texanus - 25 mm : Washitaster wenoensis 25 mm a not so great Phymosoma 1 1/2 inches Lima wacoensis quadragularis 1 inch From the Austin Chalk Formation on the ranch: Exogyra erraticostata 3 inches From the first roadcut which was Buda formation Kingena (Waconella) sp? what's odd about them is this "dip in the lip" so I am not sure what species it is (it is for sure Cretaceous Kingena/ Waconella and not a Pennsylvanian Composita which it very much looks like -we had a nice long post on that!) A few pics of some of the critters on the ranch: Auadad (not native, but gone native) Javelina mama and baby! A mule deer wild turkeys

    Unrecognized algae

    Hi guys, I would like to know if you can recognize this algae fossil. It is Cenomanian in age and associated with microbialites. My first guess is cyanobacteria. Thanks!

    4 month round up

    I was gonna call this a monthly round up but I just realized it's been four months, adjusting to new job has had me messed up. I've only gone to 2 locales in 4 months and I'm having withdrawals. Anyway, I stopped at a outcrop of buda formation for about 30 minutes while the family went shopping, the buda had given me 2 graptocarcinus carapaces previously so I was looking specifically for that, I found what I thought was a carapace but it turned out to be a chela with just a nub of a dactyl, unfortunately the finger got broken off somewhere in between getting it out of the ground and getting it home. I assume this is graptocarcinus but I have not found any pictures of the chela.

    Buda formation crabs

    I thought I would check out a small exposure of what I think is Buda formation, I wasn't expecting much but I thought maybe I might get lucky, boy did I. The most interesting finds were two crab carapaces IDed as graptocarcinus texanus, (thanks Dan) enough talking, pictures!
