Hello all, In my investigation of the fauna of the Devonian Mahantango Formation, I have become quite interested in the trilobite Dipleura dekayi. I have not yet had the opportunity to encounter this bug on the field, but it’s size and strange appearance have draw my interest. From the sources that I have read regarding the Mahantango and Hamilton Group formations in Pennsylvania and New York, I have noticed that trilobites with a very similar appearance have been referred to the separate genera Dipleura and Trimerus.

Last weekend I took a trip to Buffalo and Rochester to do some fossil hunting in between visiting friends and family. This weekend may have been the best luck of the year so far and have accumulated to some of my favorite finds of all time. My first stop was at a location in the southern tier of Buffalo where I found some complete trilobites and pyritized gastropods and cephalopods. My second stop was in Rochester, I have a few places that I explore every now and then for Lockport Formation fluorite and calcite when I am in town for work. This time around I actually had better luck finding fos

Took a quick road trip to a fossil locality in western New York over the weekend, a bit south of Rochester in the finger lakes region. Amongst the usual fossils I dig up at this locality I found a very well preserved gastropod that was larger than any I have seen in my time collecting. I was hoping someone could help me identify the species. Thank you! Took a field picture in case I destroyed the fossil while trying to grab it. It popped out after a long and slow excavation. After washing the detail is much more visible, including possible predatory

I was recently looking at one of my cephalopod fossils when I came upon this. The only explanation I can come up with is that it is a scolecodont, the jaws of polychaete worms, and these have been found in the Hamilton group before (Arabellites sp.) However, I've never seen pictures of scolecodonts in which the jaw doubles back on itself as it does here. I included an interpretive drawing to show what I am seeing. The size appears to be a little bigger than what my book predicted scolecodonts to be; I cannot give a precise measure because my microscope does not show this information. Am I simp

Hello everyone, This weekend on Sunday my family and I made a short trip out to Central NY to do some fossil hunting. I was planning on doing this on my actual birthday which was on Monday but due to the weather we decided to do it earlier. As a result the trip ended up being more spontaneous, shorter than expected but still very enjoyable. The first stop was DSR, this was my second time at the quarry and although I didn't get as diverse of a selection of fossils this time (probably just being more picky), I got some nice specimens of a few new species as well as ones I already had.

From the album: Nautiloid’s Trilobite Collection
This is a super rare Monodechenella trilobite from the Deep Springs Road site in Central New York. This specimen is the only one I have seen or heard of from DSR. I’m not sure whether this is M. macrocephala or an undescribed species. Collected August 19, 2022© Owen Yonkin 2022

Hello all! Today I met up with my good friends @Dean Ruocco and @KompsFossilsNMinerals to collect a couple of Hamilton Group sites in Central NY. The first site we went to was the famous Deep Springs Road site, and then we hit a second location for a little while afterwards. All around it was a good day of collecting, with everyone having success in the trilobite department.
