On Friday I made a visit to an Atlanta area gem/mineral/fossil show. Generally I have poor luck at these shows, in large part because there are only a couple of dealers with fossils. This trip was different. One of the dealers was selling some items from an old collection. Most of what I bought was exciting to me because they are species I have wanted for a long time, for one reason or another. First up is a nice (to me at least) New Jersey Tiassic coelocanth, Diplurus newarki (I think the genus might have changed but Diplurus is OK for now). The dealer thought it was just a skull so it was very cheap, as the rock is very black and it was hard to see the skeleton in the room lighting. I used the flashlight on my phone to give oblique light and was very happy at what I saw! He also had some ammonites I was excited to see. Two are Triassic, a Ceratites nodosus and an Acanthoceratites spinosum from Germany. I collected a Ceratites when I was a kid (about 10) living in Germany, but it broke and all I have left is a piece. I've wanted a better specimen for roughly the last 50 years! I started to clean out the inner whorls on the Acanthoceratites but that will take quite a while. There was a third ammonite that was labeled as another Triassic species, but when I got home I recognized that it is actually a Placenticeras, a Late Cretaceous genus. I am not sure of the species and the preservation is different from the North American sites I know about, so I suspect it might be from a European source. I'll post more photos in the Fossil ID thread to see if anyone recognizes it. I also scored a trilobite I've wanted forever, an Elliposocephalus hoffi. Not because it is especially pretty, but because it is representative of the Chechosolakian Cambrian that is so important in trilobite lore. I also grabbed a nice Calymene celebra. Last up for now is an OK shrimp from Lebanon. The body is all authentic, but I'm not 100% sure about the appendages. It's pretty nice though so I like it. There are a few other little things but the above is enough for now. When I got home a box of New Mexico ammonites from the Christmas auction was waiting for me, which made a good day even better!

A complete, if yet unprepped, specimen of the late Triassic coelacanth, Diplurus newarki. Not sure how I will go about prepping this, but I have a few options. Late Triassic, (Rhaetian). Lockatong Formation, Newark Supergroup, North Bergen, NJ.© © 2015 Tim Jones

This skull will need to be prepared to find out what it is. It looks a bit too narrow to be from Diplurus newarki, (although, it could be) . It could also possibly be from the early ray finned fish, Turseodus sp. or Synorichthys sp., which are known from the same strata. Newark Supergroup, Newark Basin, Late Triassic, Lockatong Formation.

Bones of a partial late Triassic coelacanth, Diplurus newarki. These layers are extremely hard to split. However, these layers (partially metamorphosed?) also preserve bones and scales very well, either in white or blue. (The blue is indicative of de-phosphatization.) The first and second dorsal fin bones are just visible -still partially covered at the top of the fossil. Also visible are the partially disarticulated Y-shaped vertebral bones (veterbral processes?) Note also the blue scales. Late Triassic, (Rhaetian). Lockatong Formation, Newark Supergroup, North Bergen, NJ. AS ALWAYS - RIGHT CLICK AND SELECT LARGE FOR BEST VIEWING© © 2016 Tim Jones
