Hi, Some weeks ago, I found those spatangoid echinoids in my usual Upper campanian/Lower Maastrichtian hunting zone of SE of Pyrenees: I think they fit well with Diplodetus brevistella, as shown in http://www.echinologia.com/galeries/micrasteridae/index.html#diplodetus But, I found no other references of Diplodetus in the Pyrenees, and hardly in distant zones of Spain, which makes me doubt (Diplodetus is a genus mostly found in Northern Europe)

I decided on a whim to go fossil hunting yesterday. I took off on the 2 hr drive to get to my favorite area the North Sulphur River Texas. I jumped off in three creeks to see footprints everywhere. I decided to go try a creek I spotted a few years ago but never tried. It paid off. I found my first NSR echinoid after 4yrs of heavy hunting. Echinoids are quite rare at NSR. I also found a really cool Pachydiscus ammonite with an Inoceramid on it. I think I"ll try that creek again in the future.
