Hey everyone, today I found a new locality!! This locality is in the famous Shawangunk formation and it produces rare eurypterids. I have found Shawangunk material at a few localities but its interesting to compare the abundance of fauna at different localities. This new locality (like the others) primarily produces Parahughmilleria, However, 2 odd specimens were also found. One really reminds me of the invalid species Dolichopterus otisius. It is likely Nanahugmilleria clarkei. The other specimen is much more odd to me it could be Hughmilleria shawangunk but it could also be Kiaeropterus otis

Found last week in small stream in my yard south of Bham, AL which contains mainly early/mid Paleozoic era and potentially some late. This specimen resembles a crab fossil specimen from AL, but the time period doesn’t match up. Encyclopedia of AL Thus, what could it be? IMO, does not resemble the pics I find for Eurypterus pinchers. Another possibility is that it could have been mixed in with landscape river rocks rocks uphill from the stream?
