I ended up with a fossil with almost no id. (I need to avoid fossil shows; where I can yield to temptation) It is reported to be a Moroccan dinosaur vertebrae. If anyone can make a educated guess as it its species, age and formation, based on its preservation and shape, I would greatly appreciate it. It is a rough oval 14 cm by 10 cm and 9 cm in height

Hi everyone! I travelled to the Isle of Wight during the long weekend of April we just had and found some interesting things. Everything below was found in the south part of Shanklin beach. I'm sorry I did not include a scale in the pictures, but they are all around 10 cm. Thanks for you help :-)

Inspired by @daves64 pictures, I decided to try out a Dino Lite for myself. I tried the AF4915ZTL model. I knew I wanted image stacking capabilities, which Dino-Lite calls Extended Depth of Field (EDOF), Automatic Magnification Reading (AMR) since an accurate scale bar was a priority and a long working distance for larger specimens so that helped narrow down the model. There are definitely pros and cons about it, but I'll let the results do the talking. Taken using EDOF: Taken using EDOF as well: Taken using the Extended Dynamic Range (EDR) feat

I'd like to share with you a dinosaur footprint I recovered off the beach on Saturday. It comes from the Saltwick Formation, Whitby I know that dinosaur footprints are much harder to prove without absolute doubt since they are trace fossils unlike bone or ammonites ect. But I think this is a really good example as the three toes can be clearly seen. Not much of a heel so probably didnt put it's foot fully flat on the sand, which I've heard happened often (correct me if i'm wrong)

The BBC news has ran two great fossil find stories leading up to Christmas first headline was Largest millipede fossil ever! found on a Northumberland beach Arthropleura in a sandstone block Howick bay. The second story was of the best ever dinosaur embryo in egg found in china thought to be an Oviraptosaur. Both news items are worth checking out as they are fantastic finds. Merry Christmas to you all John

This just looked bizarre compared to any other concretions with such smoothness and the perfectly scalloped out area. Could it be dino bone of some sort? ?

Dinosaur Book Recommendations And Fossiling Spots In Florida
FloridaLemonShark13 posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
So guys I’ve been wondering about what y’all think are the best books for reference and for art books, paleo art is really cool to me and I’d love to add some. 2nd does anyone here have any ideas on where I should look for fossils, Central Fl Region? -
I am attaching photos of a fossil found in a cold water spring in Texas, that I call the Luvasourus. You cannot really see everything in these pictures. The location in Texas where it was found (along with many others) is a spring with a water temp below 65 degrees. It is unique for Texas, and no one has ever seen anything quite like this. It has been reviewed by three Universities in Texas, a Paleontologist, and several others. At this point I have been told it is probably pre-dinosaur, possibly petrified, possibly a species of Brighstoneus, or even the claw of a raptor, and baby T-rex.

I've been finding what I believe are eggs of prehistoric animals mainly turtles or tortoises. I've been told they are rocks so I decided to sand one down and discovered what looks to be a turtle inside. I'm I have not been able to find others with turtles inside but realize they didn't hatch for a reason either they weren't fertilized or they were or died before they were hatched. Alsoi am currently homeless and do not have a lot of resources at my disposal (besides time) or the knowledge of what I'm doing. The larger egg has a brown leathery patch covering approx a quarter of the egg.

Hi everyone. I have a question, or rather I would like the opinion of all of you as fossil collectors and lovers of the life of the past, both amateurs and professionals. The truth has little that I entered the world of paleontology, and the truth does not cease to amaze; I have barely 5 or 6 months researching everything about life in the past, and throughout the months I always see the same debate between people that for sure, is nothing new for all of you. The problem of whether to collect fossils or not. I recently read right here in the forum about a very controversial paleontolog

Why is Tyrannosaurus the only dinosaur that is mainly referred to by the genus name and the species name? I mean, nobody talks about T. horridus or D. longus but nobody also just talks about plain Tyrannosaurus.

Dinosaur teeth from North Carolina are very rare to come by. There are only a small handful of sites where they have come from. One of the sites is well known, but the others are a closely guarded secret. Those of you who have been lucky to find such things, let's see your pictures. Not mosasaurs, not plesiosaurs but land dwelling dinosaurs. Here are mine. First a Tyrannosauroidea indet. There are two known Tyrannosaurids from N.C. Dryptosaurus and Appalachasaurus.The small size of this tooth will most likely keep it from being able to be ID'd

Hi! This is my first time here so may i most embarrassingly start by asking if this is even a tooth? Found along Red Deer River in Alberta a few km south of Tolman Bridge (in Horseshoe Canyon formation). I found it washed up in an erosion channel. Thank you, Danno/
