Hoooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here we are at last, into Adam's Silurian. Thanks for looking. First up is the Lower Silurian or Llandovery and I begin with a problem. I posted this one incorrectly in Adam's Ordovician as it had got it's label muddled up with an Ordovician Favosites I had that has vanished in the move here, but is being replaced by kind forum member @Herb Anyway, this, I remember now I've found the correct label, is from the greenish Browgill Formation, part of the Stockdale Group from a cutting near Skelg

This partial cephalon is on a block of lower Devonian Birdsong shale from Parsons. Tennessee USA. There are several types of Dalmanites in this shale and two other partials are on this same block. The problem is that none of the species that I am familiar with have an anterior margin that wraps around the glabella the way this one does. Even with the margin being broken along a suture, it still doesn't provide a match with anything I am familiar with from this formation, and I can only find a few types that would have this effect if a suture is followed. The lenses are missing from the ey

The thread http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/84678-adams-silurian/ was getting rather enormous, so I have decided to leave that one to deal with the Llandovery and Wenlock and put my specimens from the Late / Upper Silurian here, though I don't have a great deal of material from the Ludlow and Pridoli yet. However, I do still have some jolly nice specimens to show off here. Here are my other collection threads for the Cambrian and Ordovician ; http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/78887-adams-cambrian/&tab=comments#comment-832018 and : http://www.

Hi all! Just wanted to share my little collection of trilobites and pals now that I have a small assortment. I hope you enjoy! I’m working up to actually getting out in the field soon, so hopefully a few finds of my own might join these fellers!

This morning I made a trip to a local spot. Wenlockian. Gravicalymene celebra, measures 4cm This one was difficult to work with, as dolostone always is. Ommokris obex cephalon, which turned out to be partial, and a small ventral calymene. The arrow points to the tongue-like protuberance which I was able to extract in one piece and glue back on, giving this trilobite a gargoylesque appearance. And last but not least, a mystery find...

So the new house and work have keep me way busier than I had expect. I finally got around to getting my prep room set up for the most part and got around to starting some prep. Here's what I started with. Then the progress of getting it there. I had an oopsie as my engraver kinda got away from me doing some damage. Finally I finished it off with a clear matte finish to help stabilize it and make it pop against the matrix.

I thought today would be a good day to stay inside, relax, keep warm and draw again. A friend requested a particular Trilobite drawing. The subject this time is Trilobite Dalmanites limulurus, a Silurian bug from Middleport, NY. The graphic is more like a technical illustration than a cartoon drawing. It came out how I hoped, using textured paper, a 4B pencil, Charcoal pencil and an eraser.
