Marine snails of the Lincoln Creek Formation
Neanderthal Shaman posted a topic in Member Collections
Hey all, Been absent from the forum for a while, life's been busy. I thought it would be fun to show off some of the deep sea marine gastropods I've found from 2 Lincoln Creek Formation exposures. Top: Whitneyella lincolnensis x 2, Priscofusus chehalisensis Middle : Turricula washingtonensis x 5, moon snail x 4 (either Natica sp. or Polinices sp., hard for me to tell) Bottom: Exilia lincolnensis x 3, moon snails x 2- 3 replies

Here's a partial odontocete skull found in the Lincoln Creek Formation of Washington state, early Oligocene. Found by James Goedert. I stepped over it while asking him about paleomagnetic measurements or brands of coffee, he turned to answer and spied it! Nice find.

A stunning find yesterday, my best so far, of a rare palaega goedertorum. Lincoln Creek Formation, upper Oligocene of Washington state. 34 years hunting here, I've only found six. Some of my colleagues have hunted for decades and have yet to find one.

Here's a few finds from last summer's hunt. Many are still being acid etched. The megalodon tooth was found in Washington's Astoria Formation (Miocene) along with the basking shark tooth. The meg was found by an associate on a hunt. Found many other whale and dolphin fossils, a couple skulls, both are being prepped at museum's. One rare find was part of a sea turtle (4th photo) that's awaiting shipment, for study in Taiwan. A lot of fish nodules and one of my favorites, a fish jaw, last photo. Planning more hunts this summer and my 2nd (and final) retirement.

Step by step prep of a Pulalius crab from the Lincoln Creek Fm of WA State. I obtained this one in trade 5+/- years ago from forum member DLB, and sat on it till now. Glad I kept it. Also glad I have no more time consuming crabs to prep! Next I’ll try my hand at a few Black Cat Mountain trilobites.
