I purchased this as a supposed Silurian Megalograptus from Yunnan a while back. The seller gave me additional information that it came from the Devonian Cuifengshan Formation in Qujing, Yunnan, China. However, the genus Megalograptus is Ordovician in age. I'm not really familiar with eurypterids, so maybe it's not even a sea scorpion. It certainly looks like some kind of invertebrate though. But maybe it's just indeterminate debris.

Hi! I’m still trying to identify one fossil from a particular unit of Pleistocene/Early Holocene lacustrine silt from my hometown of Saskatoon, but I figured I would look away from it for a bit to try and identify another fossil from the same unit I’ve been unable to classify. I have two specimens, both apparently of the same species. They are both approximately 0.5 millimetres across. They are perfectly circular, with lines radiating from the centre and rings of alternating colours (possibly representing growth lines). One specimen is photographed dorsally, showing its circular shape, the other in profile, showing its umbrella-like, protruding outline. All photos are taken through a microscope with my best camera currently available, an iPhone! My main areas of middling expertise are arthropod and vertebrate fossils, so I have no idea what this is! I have briefly studied fossil foraminifera and diatoms in the past, but it looks like nothing I’ve seen in those areas as well. It reminded me of a small limpet, some type of seed or spore, or perhaps even a strange fish scale, but I have no formal suggestions. I’d highly appreciate any help! I will try to supply any additional information you may need. Thank you!

I have these few pieces of coral I need help identifying. They were all found in middle Tennessee. They were all found in the same place and their formation is part of the stones river group. I also have this weird little guy from Tennessee that my dad found on a roof.

Hi, here is a bunch of tiny beauties from Texas (Lake Bridgeport). If somebody can help ID the gastropods at 1:40 and a crinoid at 4:20, it would be much appreciated.
