Need some help identifying if it’s a fossil (Collected from Rhode Island)
veenasaur posted a topic in Fossil ID
Just came back from a fossil hunting trip. Most of my findings are on softer shale rocks so they’re very delicate. Really would appreciate your help to identify whether they’re a fossil or just a cool looking rock. I have tried my best to take good pictures but I am willing to post again if anyone wants a different angle. -
Hello, looking to see if anyone can ID any of these to species level? They were found in a creek which is a mix of Middle Ordovician and Lower Mississippian rock in Defiance MO . Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello everyone, I need you again. Today I bought some fossils, as a gift the seller sent me a shell (I don't know if they are brachiopods or bivalves). I asked him where they were from, and he told me that they were from Costa Rica, from a place called Puntarenas, but I looked up information on PBDB Navigator and there is no fossil site in that specific place (although there are two places nearby that date from the Eocene). . Could someone give me more information? I leave some images

Fossil identification from Croatia..?..There are so many of them
todor.dbk posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello everyone, I am your member since yesterday and this is my second post. I wonder if you can help me with identification? I think these are the shells of some molluscs.. I live in Dubrovnik, Croatia and our rocks are extremely rich in these fossils, but I don't know which ones they are? Our rocks here are mostly white limestones of Cretaceous age, and as far as I've seen online, the rudists, which are abundant here, don't have a two-part shell, like this creature? It seems so to me. Thanks everyone in advance ! And what do you think, should I try to dissolve them- 13 replies

Hello, this is my first post here on The Fossil Forum. I recently went fossil hunting in the Glen Rose formation near Canyon Lake, looking for echinoids and other invertebrates. I did end up finding a few and tried to identify them myself, but I would appreciate confirmation from somebody more experienced than me. Is the fossil in the images above Heteraster obliquatus? I also found an echinoid that looks to me like Paracidaris texanus. This specimen has foraminifera tests and other bits of limestone still a

Hello! I got this ammonite fossil from Madirovalo, Madagascar. Cretaceous. That's all the info I got. Does anyone know possibly what species it is or if it's Lower Cretaceous or Upper Cretaceous? Regards.

Was told this was Precambrian, but it doesn’t match anything I know?
PR0GRAM posted a topic in Fossil ID
I was told this was a type of Protomedusas from Jin Jia . I’m not super well versed in Precambrian biota but I have not been able to find any info about this anywhere. I thought it was a crinoid attachment point at first but that also doesn’t look correct. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The slab is about 2 inches total. -
Found this strange fossil in a creek in Austin Texas. It’s been sitting around for a while, I’ve tried to look it up but I have had no luck. Im hoping someone more knowledgeable can help me out. The photo of the second fossil is included because of the strange engraving on it. It appears to be almost a swirl but I have no idea what might have caused it.

Hi everyone, I have a black tooth fossil that needs identifying
Rocky998 posted a topic in Fossil ID
So, about 4-5 years back I was at Aurora NC and they have a fossil dig there that is made up of gravel and dirt from a phosphate mine that regularly finds huge megladon teeth and other ocean fossils. When I found it, there were two men who were helping me identify sharks teeth and other fossils... As soon as he saw it he asked if he could hold it and then said he was jealous and he had seen nothing like that before... Now, 4-5 years later, I had it sitting in a glass frame and I looked at it one day and went, "what the heck are you". Then I asked about it on a general thread section on an aqua -

Hello from Louisiana! I am requesting help identifying a couple of fossils that were found in Montana. They were spotted while exploring the area with binoculars. The fossils were protruding out of the ground near an area with substantial erosion. Any ideas or suggestions as to what these two are?

Here are some images of what I recently found near Makoshika state park(around 5miles east of the park) - MT, Hell Creek formation. I suspect it is a theropod, but I am unsure and would love to hear some thoughts.
