9cm. I found this one very early in my collecting "career" and botched the hand preparation somewhat - there are lots of scratches on it - but I've kept it all this time since it's somewhat of a rarity for these parts. Also the glimpse in the chambers is nice. Found in the Wutach Valley in the Staufensis Bank of the Upper Aalenian, Middle Jurassic. -

11cm. murchisonae zone Late Aalenian Achdorf Formation From the Wutach Valley -
This past Sunday, I decided to pay my friend a visit at his workplace in the Wutach valley which I reported on recently. I left home a few hours earlier than he did since I wanted to visit a site on the way which another friend had told me about. This was off of a steep path through the woods which I had never taken before, so I was looking forward to excercising my calves and thighs. The way took me a kilometer or so uphill until I reached what appeared to be the pinnacle, which was where the exposure in the humphriesianum zone was supposed to be which I had been looking for. Up to that point I had hardly noticed any exposures, so I was happy to discover an approximately 20 meter long one here just below the path. Downed the knapsack, pulled out the tools and went at it. After a few minutes, however, I noticed that I obviously hadn't reached the highest point, since I was digging in the Aalenium, the epoch where I feel most at home, so it works like a magnet on me. Surprise, surprise. Funnily enough, I ended up making my best finds here. Spent about 2 hours prying away at well-weathered rock which obviously had not been touched by collectors for a good long time. I think I'll come back soon for another visit. Anyway, I carried on afterwards up the hill and eventually found the exposure I had been originally looking for. Spent an hour or so exploring it, but didn't come up with any ammonites as I'd been hoping. Did find a nice bivalve however. After I was done there I headed on over to my friend, a brisk walk of a couple of kilometers through the woods over flat land. Just a bit of downhill slipping and sliding at the end to get to him. Good thing I could hear him hammering since it wasn't all that easy to orientate myself for all the trees and shrubs. Then I just relaxed, drank a lot of water and watched him sweating at it. He'd had enough after an hour or so, so we made our way together down to his car and he drove me back to mine, which was a welcome relief for me. Here are the finds I made, already prepped and finished. The first is a Ludwigia haugi, my avatar, the next ones are Ancolioceras opalinoides and finally the bivalve from the humphriesi oolite, a Ctenostreon proboscideum.

I took another trip to the Wutach yesterday and dug up the Aalenian a bit. Didn't find all that much this time around, but I was happy to have found another Ludwigia haugi in the murchisonae zone which went straight into the display case after prep.

Prepping this little block from Skye. Question is how far to go?
-
To be seen on the matrix below the ammonite are 2 Myophorella formosa bivalves on the right and a Staufenia opalinoides ammonite. The shell on one side is completely preserved. The other side shows the calcite mold with sutures on the phragmocone. Only a small section of the body chamber on this specimen is preserved. If complete, it would probably have had a diameter of approximately 16cm. This is the index fossil of the subzone. Old German Chronostratigraphy: Dogger (Braunjura) beta Literature: Rieber,H.

A friend of mine has this stone. I've heard some wild stories that he dreams up about it. Is there any fossils similar or does anyone have an idea of what it might be from. Any help I would apprectiate very much! Thank You!
