What I believe to be a carpus of the major chela of a ghost shrimp. Not an unusual find for me, but this was found near an exposure of Pittsburgh Bluff formation where previously I have only found them in Astoria formation.

ID help. Crustacean, mollusk, or something else? Upper carboniferous.
Gramps posted a topic in Fossil ID
I have found several of these in an outcropping of shale and limestone in the Iola Formation in Northeastern Oklahoma (middle Pennsylvanian). The longest dimension is about 15 mm (≈ 5/8 inch). Some of the other specimens are slightly larger, but all have the same pattern of bumps. (I photographed this one because it shows the least wear.) I’m wondering it might be the carapace of a phyllocarid or some other crustacean. Alternatively, it might be a bivalve or other mollusk. Any help with ID would be appreciated. Focus and exposure were difficult, so there are several images. Best wishes. -
Long time ago we dug near Osnabrück (NW-Germany) in a small short-time pit called "Am Danebrock". It was full of ammonites (Androgynoceras was the most common), we got rare vertebrate-parts from there, shells, snails and and and. Fossils were preserved in nodules. One of these contained a lobster, it was the first one of this typus ever found in northern Germany. I gave it to the Museum in Stuttgart and wrote with famous Günther Schweigert a small paper about it (I did the geological setting, what was only 5% of this paper) First_record_of_a_polychelid_lobster_Crusta-

Strange Finds from the Austin Ozan. A Test for the Ozan Experts.
EPIKLULSXDDDDD posted a topic in Fossil ID
I decided to take a trip to an Ozan spot after some rain a couple weeks ago. The gravel finds were sparse, but I fortunately remembered to bring some of my trusty excavating tools with me from Dallas to Austin. After the trek to the main exposure at this site, I got to scouring the shaly creek bed. In previous trips, I usually didn't spend much time doing this as I had limited tools for digging. With some newly acquired technology by my side, I encountered a facet of this location I hadn't experienced before. A lot of the fossils that preserve in this formation are too fragile to survive once -
Found in some Paleozoic chalk and limestone gravel along with crinoids and brachiopods.
