Found this specimen on the beach in Lewes, Delaware (USA). Small iridescent shells and other shell shards throughout. It is about 4cm long at its widest point. Recently read about regurgitates and this looked similar. Anyone know what I have here?

Members of the Hamulus genus are easily confused with Scaphopoda (tusk shells) and were originally identified as such. The shells are curved tubes ending in a point, with smooth interiors. Hamulus squamosus begins with less pronounced ornament and grows wider longitudinal ridges as it matures1. 1. Survey, Maryland Geological. Maryland Geological Survey: Upper Cretaceous. 2 Pts. 1916, p. 747.

Belemnitella americana showing internal molds. Upper Cretaceous Mt. Laurel Formation Delaware, USA It's not often one finds an internal mold of the guard where the internal texture is clearly visible. Although internal molds of other animals are common at this locality, any internal molds of belemnites are few and far between. Broken though it is, the lower specimen is one of my favorite belemnites.© c. 2022 Heather JM Siple

Oddly smooth, but typical of this locality, these crinoid segments are only about 2mm in diameter. From the Cretaceous spoils deposits of teh Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, Delaware.© c. 2022 Heather JM SIple

I plan on hunting the Marshalltown formation in New Jersey / Delaware soon. I can’t find what fossils to expect online. Does anyone have resources or know what to expect?

This is a very rare find at this site. Although two members of the genus have been reported along the C and D Canal, this is the only one I've found at Reedy Point in 17 years of collecting there! PLEASE NOTE: It is possible that this was carried there during frequent human activity - perhaps in a tire tread from a vehicle that came from another site along the canal. This specimen has a 4mm pearl bud near the hinge on the interior side of the valve. Because there are more than one species of Pteria at the canal and this shell is heavily worn, I am refraining from narrowing it down to a species. Of the two reported, only one really resembles it. P. petrosa (Conrad) has strong, concentric growth rings, but no costae. P. laripes (Morton) has strong costae and fine growth lines, so is probably a match.

Found this on the beach in Lewes, DE. It's 3cm long, 0.5cm thick and 2cm at the wider end. The lines are raised. Curious if it is some sort of plant fossil. Thanks for any help in identifying!

My son found this on the beach in Lewes, Delaware. It is a little over 1.5 cm long and 1 cm both wide and deep. Maybe it's a cool rock but it sort of seems shell like on the side. Appreciate any help!

Vertebrae from either a stingray or skate. Found in close proximity to each other at a site where such things are rare, so probably from the same animal. L:arger one is about 3cm wide. Found at Reedy Point, C and D Canal, Delaware. Maastrichtian. -

Two Exogyra cancellata shells from the Cretaceous spoils of Reedy Point, Delaware. Although Exogyras typically detached themselves from their anchorage while still very small - about 2-3 cm - these two animals continued to live and grow together. The lower valve is about 10 cm on the long axis. -

Belemnitella americana from the Maastrtichian of Delaware. This one is strangely rounded and scarred. Looks like something bit it and it lived long enough to heal over.© copyright 2021 Heather J M Siple
