  11. Old name: Protospongia rhenana Taxonomy from Fossilworks.org. Description from Südkamp 2017, p. 25:"The large sponge has the outline of a vase, flask or bowl. It has mainly bundled diactines of the first order, which are woven into a rectangular mesh, but in contrary to Retifungus are not coiled (fibre optics network). In addition, the sponge has a lot of small triaxones of the second order lying in one plane, which radiate hexagonal (so called hexatines) or possibly also tetra radial (stauracts), because of the reduction of one of the axes of a triaxon."

    Trypaulites erinus

    Found among imported fill from various locations, all Devonian (Dundee Fm, Amherstberg Fm, and Bois Blanc Fm). Among Bois Blanc Fm rocks more dominated by plentiful examples of other dalmanatids such as Anchiopsis anchiops. This was an outlier and the only example I have been able thus far to find. My thanks to @piranha for his timely and expert identification of this interesting dalmanatid.

    Mannopyge halli

    Found among imported fill from various locations, all Devonian (Dundee Fm, Amherstberg Fm, and Bois Blanc Fm). The Amherstberg Formation occurs above the Bois Blanc, and beneath the Lucas. Trilobites in the Amherstberg are quite rare as this formation is generally dominated by reef-building corals and stromatoporoids. The more common trilobite (although still relatively rare in this formation) would be Crassiproetus, followed by Mannopyge halli, Mystrocephalus, Acanthopyge, and Harpidella species. Initially described by Hall as Proetus verneuli by Hall (1861), then Stumm (1953) as Dechenella halli, it was later renamed Mannopyge halli by Rolf Ludvigsen (1986). Whole specimens are not yet known, but cranidia, pygidia, and some thoracic segments have been reported. "A warburgelline with pear-shaped glabella, deep sigmoid 1s furrow, narrow (tr.) and faint 2s and 3s furrows; no preglabellar field, tropidium, or tropidial ridges. Large eyes located anterior of cephalic midlength; genal spines short. Semicircular pygidium lacks a flat border,-axis with 9 - 10 node-bearing rings, eight faint pleural furrows and incised interpleural furrows, each pygidial rib terminates abaxially as a rounded node isolated by moderately deep paradoublural furrow." (Ludvigsen, 1987 p. 683). This species is well defined by its rounded nodes (shown in the picture), with the name "Mannopyge" being a combination of "manno" (necklace) and "pyge" (tail). As trilobites in this formation are rare, this is a somewhat exceptional find. I have yet to find any other examples of this trilobite in the collecting area. A big thanks to @piranha for his expertise in identifying this find. Sources: Ludvigsen, R. (1987). Reef trilobites from the Formosa Limestone (Lower Devonian) of southern Ontario. Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences 24. 676-88.

    Cephalopod Shell Color!

    Hello all! Recently I have been obsessed with cephalopods and realized there is a real lack of reconstructions of the color patterns on extinct nautiloids and ammonites! This led me to compile a list of known fossil color patterns on cephalopods. After a year of on and off research, I found about 90 species of cephalopods retaining official or undescribed, original patterning on their shells. These are the first 15 species on my list. The color markings are based both on descriptions and photographs of the fossil material. The shades of the markings are based on the fossils, but also inferred. I Hope you will appreciate my work!

    Greenops barberi Trilobite Tail Moscow Formation in western New York state TIME PERIOD: Devonian Period (ca 390,000,000 yrs old) Greenops is a mid-sized Devonian trilobite of the order Phacopida, subfamily Asteropyginae. They are mainly reported from the mid-Devonian Hamilton Group of upstate New York and southwestern Ontario. A similar-looking trilobite from Morocco is often mis-labelled Greenops. Greenops had schizocroidal eyes (resembling compound eyes in insects), large genal spines and short, sharp spines at the tip of each segment of the pygidium ("tail"). Greenops lived in warm, fairly deep water. In the Hamilton Group of New York, they are found with Phacops, Dipleura and Bellacartwrightia, a trilobite that resembles Greenops but has much larger pygidial spines. In Ontario, they are found in the Widder Formation, which outcrops at Arkona, where they are, by far, the dominant trilobite. Greenops' average size is about 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.8 cm). They were fairly common trilobites, and are easily identified. While it is rare to find a complete disarticulated body, segments and tails are fairly common. They are fairly common finds in Late Devonian limestones, especially storm deposits. They are identified by their tails, which sport several spines. They were medium to small sized trilobites, which were most likely preyed upon by ammonoids, straight cephalopods, sharks, and small placoderms, hence the defensive spines. All of these animals have been found in close association with this trilobite. Greenops can also be found in deep marine deposits, but there it is fairly rare. Greenops was a small, yet charmingly beautiful trilobite, like its close companion Phacops. Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Arthropoda Class: †Trilobita Order: †Phacopida Family: †Acastidae Genus: †Greenops Species: †barberi
