Started this one yesterday. After a 1hr it wasn't looking like a good one it was disarticulated and and all mixed up not to mention it was the bottom of it. So I tried for a hail mary, and went on the attack of the other side. boy I'm glad I did. The other side looks like it could be a real nice one but only time will tell.;)

Good morning to everyone! Unfortunately there is no source of reference for this fossil crab. My friend bought, but the seller did not know anything. Someone, please, could try to help in the identification? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you all! :-)

China Crab Fossils - Real or Fake?
Trilobiting posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi all. On an auction site, I found these "crab fossils" for sale. Seller says they're from Guangdong. One person left a message saying the fossil was a fake, and that it was just a recently dead crab engaged in a mass of sand and resin. Not really sure on this one. -

Today I spent over 5 hours scouring the beach at Eastchurch gap on the Isle of Sheppey with a fellow fossil hunter. We walked from Eastchurch gap all the way to Warden point and between us we found extremely little, a few broken teeth etc. As we turned round to head back it seemed our luck changed with it! The shark teeth began to appear in good number although many of them were quite broken and not worth keeping, a few nice specimens were there to be found! Of the nice teeth there was one stand out tooth, a Notorynchus serratissimus (picture to follow), the first one of this species I have ever found! :-D also a first for me was the small Burnhamia daviesi(Rhinoptera daviesi) ray file. My hunting partner also found a nautilus nodule with a damaged centre which he gave to me for my collection of nautili. The rest of the walk turned up many more damaged shark and fish teeth, some small crab nodules and a few quite nice examples of bivalves and gastropods.

The last few weeks I have been lucky enough to have some spare time, and have used it wisely! I have spent it combing every inch of my favourite spot on the northern shoreline of the Isle of Sheppey in Kent, Uk. Hunting conditions have not been too good recently. With a rather un seasonal amount of rain falling recently and some unfavourable tides the fossil beds have been largely covered by mud and shingle. But nevertheless I have spent hours looking through the uncovered patches sometimes on hands a knees, looking for mainly crabs and shark teeth. I will post some of my finds below....

I found several of these specimens near Eagle Pass, Texas. They all seem to have 8 legs, but I have not seen any with large front claws. One of the examples has two dents that might be for antennas or eye stalks. The surrounding rock varies from sandstone to soft shale and clay. These are found in hard sandstone. The only other fossils I've found near this layer look like worm burrows or perhaps coral. Possible crab specimens (4x) Other typical fossils from this layer (worm burrows or coral, not sure) Wide shot of the layers
