Went to look for trilobites at one of my favorite localities. No complete trilobites that day, but I did spot a neat little tooth instead. I did some prep hoping it could be identified, and will finish it soon. I thought the root and multiple side cusplets compared well with Glikmanius occidentalis, but of course I always welcome more opinions. I forgot to add a scale, but the exposed portion of the tooth measures 2 cm in length. as found after some cleaning

Today I split out a tooth that I am unfamiliar with. At first glance, I had thought it was a Deltodus tooth, but during closer inspection I am questioning that. Unfortunately as I went to put the tooth back in the matrix, the tooth split in half. I did some glueing, and I think it can still be identified as not a lot was lost. The tooth measures right at .75 inches in length. I also found this little oddball. Not a tooth, but I sure can't think of what this is. I considered it to be part of a trilobite or bryozoan, but I don't think that is right. Any thoughts?

Today I found a few trilobites after being granted permission by a landowner to check his property for fossils. I think these have features that match much better with Ditomopyge rather than Ameura, but I am not 100% certain and would like other opinions please. Specimen #1 Specimen #2

Stumbled upon a cool looking partial tooth. I'm not the best with IDing teeth, but I think this might be a Cladodont tooth? It has side cusplets. The tooth root measures 1 inch across.

I've found some nice looking gastropods, although I'm not certain what type. I'd like to hopefully ID this type before cleaning this specimen any further. This comes from Pennsylvanian aged Deer Creek Limestone. I thought maybe it could be an Amphiscapha?

I split out what looked like a promising Ameura trilobite a day ago. After the split, I took the plate home to use a rotary tool to trim the matrix down. Then I used a sewing needle to do some detail work. It turned out not to be complete, as it's right cheek is missing. This specimen would have been around 3 inches if all there, maybe next time!

Been on a bit of a bug hunt lately. After a lot of effort, I found a layer with trilobites. After some research, it seems the 3 types of trilobite genus available in Pennsylvanian aged rocks around this area are Ameura, Anisopyge, and Ditomopyge. Ameura missouriensis is reported from the Deer Creek Formation and looks like the closest match. I just wanted to get some second opinions and see what others thought as well. Enrolled, but missing cheeks Isolated cephalon
