  1. From the album: Missouri Ammonoids, Nautiloids and Gastropods

    Found this one a long time ago and never posted it here, not sure what it belongs to but Pharkidontis has been found in nodules, any more specific IDs are welcome! Due to being contained in a phosphatic nodule, I believe the blue-grey hue comes from that as well. I have some conulariids of a similar hue so I assume it's a quirk of the fossilization process. I also have some other bellerophons of normal colorization in the same nodules. Found in a Muncie Creek Phosphatic Nodule. Here is the other half with some fish remains: The lower bone resembles braincase material, which can further support the idea this blue hue is caused by the fossilization/phosphate replacement process.

    Ammonite or gastropod?

    found this at Wollongong i do not know if its an ammonite or gastropod or some other shelled creature
  3. Here are three fossils I need help identifying. I found one from last year's summer and two from a couple years ago. Here is a possible goniatite/gastropod. Sorry for the bad quality of the images, but if you look close enough, there is a small ammonite-like shape that has been crushed. I'll see if I can get better pictures if you guys ask in the comments. Right beside the larger one is a smaller one that is facing opposite too it. Both are really flat and their spirals doesn't go all the way in. Their outlines are very hard to notice, not sure if this is a fossil or just some rock formation. A twisting cylindrical fossil that branches into two. It has cracks and resembles very much a coprolite. Might be a rock formation, but I don't think so. Sorry for the bad quality pictures. A little round cone with lines all over it coming from the tip. It is round and underneath it there are more lines coming from the outside. If you guys could identify these fossils I would be very grateful because I could not. I would be glad if these were what I assume they are because they are very rare in my area.
  4. This was found in Brazos County, Texas. Someone suggested it could be a gastropod. Any help would be appreciated.
  5. I found these while on a trek uphill. I’ve posted it on different sites but no one can give a positive ID on my finds. Location is Cebu, Philippines by the way. Always been curious about how the ocean life was here millions of years ago as most studies indicate that the Philippine archipelago was submerged in water. For more angles, click on that imgur link as I have labelled those there.
  6. Hello, what do you thing about this fragmentary specimen? Its from the Upper Cretaceous Afling-Formation of the Gosau-Group of Kainach, Eastern Alps. It was found in an about 1 m thick conglomerate bed with Trochactaeon and hippuritid rudists. It consists of about 1 1/4 whorls, the whorls do not touch, hence "scalariform"(?). The upper "end" of the "tube" has an outer diameter of about 9.5 mm, the lower "end" an outer diameter of about 12 mm. The outer surface appears the be smooth, the shell is about 1 mm thick. Sorry, these are the best pics possible. Here is a link to a pic showing a part of the outcrop in October 2021: Outcrop Reinprechtskogel-63 Many thanks! Franz Bernhard

    Is this a fossil?

    I found this Shells under the dirt, around 200 hundred meters from the sea and more than 13 meters above sea level in the Island of Dominican Republic, I am still cleaning the dirt out of them... I was hoping someone would know more about them and tell me if they are fossiles or not, I think they belong to the gastropods. VID-20220216-WA0008.mp4
  8. Hello Everyone In June last year I went on a trip with my parents to the Late Ordovician / Early Silurian-aged Cotton Formation at the Cotton Hill quarry in Forbes. All relevant permission was obtained from the local council prior to attending. I have heard that the Fossil Club of Australia (formerly NSW) do trips here as a group as well, that's probably the easiest way to attend. I planned to post this in August, however due to Covid I didn’t have access to the fossils to take pictures. Also, I only just recently bought some macro equipment to take photos of the fossils which is why my post took so long. Be sure to zoom in on each photo as they are all highly detailed. (open in a new tab) For useful previous expeditions and information by others see: For those unaware, the fauna is dominated by Sinespinaspis markhami, a small odontopleurid trilobite. Unfortunately, I found no specimens with their free cheeks attached, nor did I find any specimens of the rarer Aulacopleura pogsoni or the even rarer Raphiophorus sandfordi. We had two days of digging, and the temperature was a cool 14-15C on both days, but once the sun came out and with long-sleeve shirt and pants on, we definitely started sweating. As soon as we got out of the car, I found a partial trilobite negative lying on the ground. It was 8mm long and looked like it was left behind by another fossicker. Once we realised where the designated fossicking area was (back near the road entrance, and not in front of the parking area) we could start properly searching for fossils. The first ones we found were on the surface on the westernmost boundary. It’s amazing how big the actual site is. Considering how deep the hole in the ground is, there probably would’ve been thousands or millions of fossils unearthed and used in road material over the years. Both the plates seem to be death assemblages, with hundreds of “trilo-bits” on them along with what looks like tiny shells. When I got home, I wanted to split the L-shaped to expose more of the second layer (you can see one set of cold chisel marks) but the matrix must have been unstable as it cracked into five pieces and exploded. It did set free a new trilobite though, which is cool.

    Cretaceous Gastropod from TX

    Found this in a roadcut in Blanco County Texas, with heart urchins, and turritella or anchuras nearby. I am most interested in the small 1cm one at the bottom (looks like swirled cinnamon donut). Any ideas? Gastropod? Odd Ammonoid thing?

    Straparolus gastropod?

    Good evening, I recently picked this up on one of my hikes I took a couple days ago in Benton County, Missouri. It was in thick woods and pretty shady, so I really wasn't able to make out anything but crinoid bits. I almost chucked it away, but thought I would keep it anyway and I'm glad I did. No apparent formation around but it appears to be Burlington/Keokuk crinoidal limestone. I'm not much of a gastropod fellow, but this appears to be one to me (possibly Straparolus?). I haven't done much prep, just enough to see the lines I saw after scrubbing it with a toothbrush and warm soapy water. Not sure if it could be id'd at this stage or even when I fully prep it (maybe too weathered?), but i figured it would be worth asking others, thanks in advance. Jackson G
