These were found in O’Fallon MO in a road cut. I think in the Fern Glen formation. Any help with ID would be much appreciated!

Weird Black Shale Fossil+ some conodont teeth fragments (Missouri)
Samurai posted a topic in Fossil ID
Location: Warrensburg, Missouri Period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Unknown Hello! I happened to have had an opportunity to visit land owned by one of my friends and decided to split some of the black shales. I happened to come across something that seems familiar but I just can't seem to place a name on it as of yet. So far I have found 2 specimens, and I'm not sure if one is just infilling of the original mold or something other. Unfortunately they were in already weathered sections of shale and I could not retrieve the other halves of the shales. In case it helps with identifications, I have found listracanthus denticles, conodont elements, very faint orbiculoidia? shells/fragments, and some nodules that were not compacted enough for me to take thin sections of. Specimen #1: What appears to be a mold of the specimen. Very faint shell fragments are visible to the right and upper portion form the specimen Specimen #2: And lastly for anyone who is interested, here are images of the conodonts! Another conodont tooth fragment seen on the left side: I didn't do any size measurements on the conodonts or use the CAI to determine anything as I'm not experienced in the later but would love any input! Thanks for taking time out of your day to read all this!- 3 replies

A lot going on with this one. The honeycomb structure as well as what appears to be the head and spine of some type of small creature. It measures 10.5” in length.

Hey I was camping on the H Roe. Bartle scout reservation when I found these fossils. I’m not familiar with the fossils of the area, so I’m not sure of the age. Any ideas on what they are? I appreciate any help!
