Meristella sp. (Spiriferid brachiopods) Lower Devonian Kalkberg Formation Helderberg Group Interstate 88 road cut Schoharie, N.Y. -
Sunday was the warmest and most pleasant day so far this spring. I decided on a solo venture up north to Schoharie County, N.Y. My destination was two road cut sites which expose the Lower Devonian Kalkberg Formation, part of the Helderberg group. The primary attractions here are the abundance and diversity of fossils, and very good preservation. The first road cut site is immense and I spent about three hours surface collecting. Most of my finds were brachiopods, some very nice specimens of Leptanena rhomboidalis, Discomyorthis oblata, Meristella, sp., Costistroponella sp., and a variety of R

I found this brachiopod today in Schoharie, New York. Its from the Lower Devonian Kalkberg formation and it’s by far the best brachiopod I’ve ever found. It’s super detailed and it’s absolutely perfect (except for some matrix that still needs to get cleaned off). I’m unsure of the species so any help would be great.

Today I was able to get out to the outcrop along Rickard Hill in Schoharie, New York. I didn’t find a ton of interesting things because I was looking in a more crystalline layer of the Kalkberg formation that had less abundant fossils. I found a handful of nice orthid, spiriferid, and atrypid brachiopods and one fenestellid bryozoan. Next time I go I’m going to try and get into a different, more fossiliferous layer because the crystalline rock is hard to break and when it does it breaks randomly, often damaging the fossils.
