I recently went to Penn Dixie for the first time and was not disappointed. Our tour guide first showed us the youngest rocks, then the pyrite. Here I found a tiny juvenile Tornoceras, Bactrites, and out guide showed us that individual septum can be found (see this post). I also found a fragment of a non-pyritized tiny Eldredgeops thorax. I found what HynerpetonHunter says is worm coprolites, and a few tiny brachiopods. Then, we went to the place where phosphate can be found. After that, we stayed a little at the place where fossils from the oldest layer were deposited in the soil, and I found

Hello again everyone, sorry for the delay between Part 1 and Part 2. I went through some more material from DSR and I've made some pretty awesome finds. I might have enough specimens for a Part 3, but I still have to go through more material. The same goes for the Penn Dixie part, I've barely touched it yet and still need to photograph the finds. To kick Part 2 off, here is my best DSR find yet! A nearly complete (unfortunately disarticulated) Echinocaris punctata!!! My kitten Indy for scale The Echinocaris has one of the spikes on its t

Yesterday my father and I took a trip out to DSR to collect samples for a school display project I'm making. We made some pretty incredible finds, including the largest trilobite I've ever seen with my own eyes. It was pretty nice at the site, the weather wasn't too cold. We immediately found some cool pieces, including 2 separate Echinocaris phyllocarid specimens (I found one, he found another) here's the Echinocaris I found, while just one valve it's got some incredible detail. here's the Echinocaris my dad found, it's the only juvenile one I

I took a half dozen trips out to Schuylkill County this summer with the kids. We looked through Mohantango and Llewellyn rocks at various locations. These are some of my personal favorites:

I've recently attempted to start preparing the fossils I collected in upstate NY. With a lot of trial and error and some nicked specimens, I have started to get used to my primitive preparation set-up consisting of a nail, a sewing needle and a hammer. Here's a disarticulated greenops which was great practice: On a side note, I've noticed that freshly exposed shell is a nice black. Would anyone know how to get that back?

I found this last Saturday in Brookfield, Madison County, New York. It’s pretty beat up but there are some features that can still be made out. I was wondering if it might be a bellacartwrightia rather than a greenops, which was my original thought. According to Karl A. Wilson’s Field Guide to the Devonian Fossils of New York, one way to tell the difference is the number of lenses in the eye in a vertical row. For greenops there is maximum of 6. This trilobite has 7 in some places. A picture of the eye, showing a vertical row of 7 lenses. A top view of the tr

As indicated in an earlier post, I found lots of trilobites while on the field trip with the NYPS on Saturday. At DSR I found lots of greenops cephalons and pygidiums and even a few 60 percenters. I also found a few Eldredgeops pygidiums and one well preserved cephalon at DSR. (And a couple random Dipleura pieces). At the second spot, which was brand new to the NYPS, I found tons of greenops. I found 30+ greenops. Mostly cephalons, pygidiums or thoracic segments. I managed to find 3 or 4 60% completes and 5 or 6 fully completes. No Eldredgeops at the second spot. The layer I wa

Final Episode of Belated DSR Trip: Arthropods, Cephalopods, etc.
Peat Burns posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Here is the final installment of my trip report to DSR (last spring with TFF group meet). These are the rest of the specimens including Gastropoda, Cephalopoda, Hyolitha, Phyllocarida, Trilobita, Ectoprocta, Plantae, etc. Scale in mm. A Palaeozygopleura encrusted with the bryozoan Leptotrypella amplectens. A close-up of Leptotrypella amplectens I am not sure what this is. I am assuming gastropod, but unlike the Bellarophontids, this one doesn't seem to have the ridge or furrow down the center. It's also q- 12 replies
