A new pliosaur from the Kimmeridgian deposits at Kimmedige has just been revealed to the world! Rumours have been going around about it for some time, but now the source of the rumours has been revealed, and it's spectacular! Belonging to the genus Pliosaurus, to judge from it's age and tooth morphology, it's one of the best preserved - if not best preserved - skull of its kind! https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-67650247?fbclid=IwAR3ukvNzGPSxBdhBp3Z3zrIEJZEbDki1ezYhSrCaLjpYVUIsc_nOGPexuDs

Hi all! This time I'd like to inform you on a short, but diverse trip to several Volga river locations. The finds were not too impressive unlike the weather, endless fields and various outcrops. First I went to the southern part of Ulyavovsk Volgian shore: (These are Hauterivian concretions. They are roundish in form) These are Volgian Volgian boulders Beige rocks are Volgian, overlaying black clay is Hauterivian. Volgian section ends nearby (to the left) as the corresponding rocky layers gradually go underground

Hi all! As winter is getting nearer I tried to catch the last glimpses of summer and went for a one-day trip to the Volga river, taking advantage of unusually low water level and a good weather forecast combination. And I wasn't disappointed with scenery and finds, which I'd like to share with you. Last warm days of November before snow cover:

Aspidorhynchus acutirostris (Blainville, 1818)
oilshale posted a gallery image in Member Collections
From the album: Vertebrates
Aspidorhynchus acutirostris (Blainville, 1818) Late Jurassic Kimmeridgian (late) - Tithonian (early) Painten Formation Painten Bavaria Germany This fish lies in an extremely soft rock and was very difficult to prepare. At the slightest touch (even with a small brush) scales could come off. Unfortunately the top of the skull is slightly dislocated.- 1 comment

Hi all! Today I'll show you a site which is quite similar to the subject of the Frozen Fossils topic, but somewhat opposite of the latter, as it's only accessible in summer (end of July- beginning of September). It's situated in the historical city of Vladimir on the Klyazma river. The banks are overgrown with vegetation, no movement whatsoever on the river and very few people visible. Occasional ducks and herons, fish splashing nearby.The bridge is the only reminder of civilization. The river bed is surprisingly formed of solid clay you can confidently walk on. The age of this clay is Lower Kimmeridgian (mostly the 1st bauhini/baylei zone which is pretty rare in European Russia)

It has been a while since I've posted anything. Not a lot of finds recently. But I've done some prepwork: 1st a little cenomanian ammonite from the chalk: Shloenbachia varians Cap-Blanc-Nez and an other ammonite, from the Kimmeridgian deposits on the French coast: probably Pectinatites sp. I had to consolidate the back, the fossil started to crack during the prep.

Hello! I hesitate to post after my last terrible misidentification of fossilised wood, but your kind help made me study harder, learn more, look harder - thank you! So I’m back with another request - I think I might have actually found wood this time? These are all from the Kimmeridgian Helmsdale Boulder Beds or nearby Portgower Boulder Beds, Scotland, UK. Dark photos are wet, mostly they go quite pale when dried out. In this case, I know wood is a known find in these areas, and I’ve found a scant few photos from seasoned collectors / geologists of finds from these locations said to be fossil wood that looks similar. But I’ve turned into the biggest pessimist and there was only a small amount of info to go on. If anyone would be kind enough to just confirm either way, I’d be so grateful (thank you!).

Hi all! Another report in continuation of the previous ones. This time I had 2 days to visit the site and used them to monitor my preferred 3 km of the shore. It was literally the last days of autumn, so by the end of my stay snow started to slowly cover the place for the 5 upcoming months. The water level was a bit lower than in 2020, but much higher than last year. This time 3 boars on the shore: one of them
