  3. Hello to everyone! I'm new here, but I really love this forum! It has really great vibes and you instantly can tell that this is a good and friendly community! My English is not good,I hope everyone can be more tolerant. I am Polybranchiaspidida, I live in China.So I many of my fossils are from China. In this topic I will show my collection of fossils(and maybe some other interesting things)
  4. Hello! I see this psittacosaurus skull on internet. It seems real? Is small the sizes are 6.5 5,3 4,1 cm Thank you so much.

    Yunnanozoon or something else?

    The longest one is roughly 2cm long. I’ve counted 12 on the rock, which itself is about 5cm long. All I know is that it’s from the Maotianshan shales in China. I was told it’s a Yunnanozoon, but I believe this is incorrect as the person I got it from is often wrong with their identifications.
  7. Quite regularly, questions turn up about the authenticity of Keichosaurus fossil specimens. Until now, most, if not all, were natural, but mostly just very poorly prepped. Would you like to show off "real" fakes, casts or replicas of Keichosaurus? I would like to get a feeling for them, at least from pics. If there already exists such a topic somewhere else in the forum, please put a link in this topic. Thank you very much! Franz Bernhard
  8. Hello, I was offered a Lycoptera Davidi fish mortality plate from Liaoning (China). I would like help checking if the fish are real, please

    Need help with fossil identification

    Shellfish, ... but what kind? Guizhou Province, China. Ordovician period. They are from Suiyang County, Zunyi City, Guizhou Province, China I think they should be some shellfish, but I would like to get more information about them. Thanks!
  11. No shoulder blades or pelvis are visible. Just a matter of presentation/preparation, or someone sort of forgot such annoying details while carving/painting a fake?
  12. Hi, thoughts on this? A 60cm Jeholosaurus. Does it look legit? Cheer

    Cambrian Harpetid

    I'm pretty certain that this is a cambrian Harpetid, but am not entirely sure. It's listed as a Palaeoharpes primigenius from the Sandu Formation.

  15. Early Cambrian microfossils preserve introvert musculature of cycloneuralians The open access paper is: Zhang, H., Xiao, S., Eriksson, M.E., Duan, B. and Maas, A., 2023. Musculature of an Early Cambrian cycloneuralian animal. Proceedings of the Royal Society B, 290(2008), p.20231803. Yours, Paul H.
  16. I recently acquired three tooth fossils from southwestern China initially labeled as a "Plesiosaurus indet." tooth. The specific locality of the tooth fossils is the Lower Shaximiao Formation, Zigong, Sichuan, China. The age of the Lower Shaximiao formation ranges from Early to Middle Jurassic. The only known plesiosaur species from the Shaximiao formation is Bishanopliosaurus zigongensis, a rhomaleosaurus. If these three tooth are indeed identified as a plesiosaur tooth, they probably belong to Bishanopliosaurus sp. Can anyone help me to identify whether these teeth are plesiosaur teeth?

    Chinese Dinosaur Eggshells

    Shown below are 3 different types of dinosaur eggshell, all said to be from the Gaugou Formation in China. The bottom left eggshell is labelled as coming from Dendroolithus, and I am confident in this identification. The other two types are supposed to come from Tarbosaurus bataar (top left) and Oviraptor philoceratops (right) however, and neither of these species are known from the Gaugou Formation, so the question is what they are actually from. Thanks in advance for any suggestions Othniel
  18. Hello! I asked this question in the Facebook group so I apologize if any of you are seeing it for a second time, but it was buried in a comment chain so I’m hoping to get a few more expert eyes on it. I received this beautifully prepared Keichousaurus today and it’s truly awesome to see it in person, but now that I’m able to inspect it more closely I’m thinking it may be a composite. There are a few things making me lean that direction: 1) There is an obvious mismatch in the patterns on the matrix, both front and back, when comparing the chunk that the body is on to the chunk that the skull is on. For example, the partial fish fossil on the righthand side just abruptly stops at the seam (last photo, blue arrow) … but it’s maybe possible that this is due to variable flaking/weathering and reattachment 2) The head is dorsal while the body is ventral … but I know it’s possible for this to happen naturally if the neck is twisted 3) The white “veins” that appear to run across both plates (skull and body) are, I think, true calcite veins in one plate and scratches intentionally placed to match on the other. For example, the red arrow in the last photo points to a junction where a true calcite vein from the body plate should cross the skull, but no vein is visible in the skull. A “vein” reappears above the skull but I believe this is just a surface scratch. On the other hand, the skull is perfectly sized and aligned to the “horns” (retroarticular processes) present on the body plate. This seems incredibly difficult to achieve in a fossil of this size. This specimen was prepared in the US and I have no reason to believe the skull is fake, but the uniform spacing and shape of the teeth also looks off to me. That may just be due to incomplete preparation of the area, I can’t tell even under 10x magnification. In any case it’s beautiful to look at, I was just a little disappointed to see that it may be a composite. What are your thoughts?

    Austronaga minuta?

    A newly described archosauromorph specimen from the lower Middle Triassic from Luoping, Yunnan in southwestern China was found and described as a new species Austronaga minuta. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austronaga The type specimen is like this: Another look-alike skull is found at the same locality, is it also an Austronaga minuta?

    Vetulicola?

    I bought this fossil about a year ago and have had it sitting in my display cabinet front and center. It was sold to me as Vetulicola, it came from the Chiungchussu formation in Chengjiang, China. I was wondering if this is actually a Vetulicola species or a similar animal from the formation. It is right at 1cm in length, and the details seem pretty good up close. If it is Vetulicola, is it possible to assign a species to this specimen? Any help would be appreciated!
  22. Hello, what are thoughts on this. A partial leg and claws from Jiufotang Formation. Anyone spot any repairs or reso? Each limb section is approximately 30cm. Seller doesn't know species--a type of Oviraptor? thanks for the help.
  23. The seller said it is a complete unhatched egg from China. 5.5 inches long. It looks weird to me. A fake or something else? Thanks
