    Brevicoceras casteri, with Hederella filiformis

    From the album: Fossildude's Middle Devonian Fossils

    Brevicoceras casteri, with an example of Hederella filiformis. According to their 2008 paper, "Morphologies and Affinities of Hederelloid "Bryozoans" ", Paul D. Taylor and Mark A. Wilson "... interpret hederelloids as colonial, phoronid-like invertebrates, with retractable lophophores." Thanks to Scott (piranha) for the paper listed above. Middle Devonian, Moscow Formation, Hamilton Group. Deep Springs Road, Lebanon, NY. Generously gifted to my by Darktooth (Dave)

    Hello all. This is a cephalopod that was found by Darktooth Dave on our last outing at Deep Springs Road. (Middle Devonian, Moscow Formation, Hamilton Group, Lebanon, NY. ) He kindly gifted me the slab this was in. While trying to break down the slab, as it was quite huge, (2ft by 2ft, by 3" thick) the darn thing popped out. No other pieces to remove, just the one. This is the first slightly coiled cephalopod of this type that I've seen from there, so I'm struggling with an ID. Not only that, but it has an encrusting example of Hederella filiformis on it. Ultra cool specimen! Thanks again, @Darktooth! I'm guessing this is either a Gomphoceras, or a Cyrtoceras? Anyone have any other thoughts, on genus/species? Thanks for any help, and for looking.

    Tiny Tabulate Coral from Deep Springs Road Quarry

    From the album: Middle Devonian

    Aulocystis dichotoma (branching tabulate coral) Middle Devonian Moscow Formation Windom Shale Hamilton Group Deep Springs Road Quarry Lebanon, N.Y. This tiny tabulate coral- approx. 2 inches wide, was on a large slab which Shamalama Dave carried for me to my parked car. Unfortunately split when I was trying to cut down the size of the slab, but should be mostly repairable.

    Despite the foreboding weather prediction, the conditions for the spring gathering of TFF members at Deep Springs Road quarry was nearly ideal; sunny and pleasantly cool in the morning and when the rain finally did arrive in early afternoon it was only light and intermittent. Kane had announced to us he was traveling across the border from Ontario, accompanied by his wife, Deb, and member of the month, Jay (Devonian Digger). Members from New York, PA., Connecticut, and Massachusetts wanting to meet them and collect at a great spot gathered there. Deep Springs Road is the easternmost exposure of the Middle Devonian Hamilton Group's Moscow Formation's Windom Shale, the same formation exposed at Penn Dixie where Jay work and collects. But the fauna at Deep Springs Road is entirely different. Corals are nearly absent. Bivalves are extremely abundant. Species such as the large trilobite Dipleura dekayi which are very rare at Penn Dixie are common here. Every rock has the potential to reveal the gems of this rich and diverse fauna. Oh, and by the way, thanks largely to Kane and Jay's and Darktooth Dave's prodigious efforts a massive amount of rock was moved. In the picture, left to right-Kane's wife Deb, Jay, Mike (Pagurus) and his wife, Leila. Above them- Kane. On the far right, Tim (Fossildude19).

    Jeffrey P posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips

    Inspired by my friend, Darktooth, Dave and his recent exploits at Deep Springs Road quarry I decided due to a favorable weather report on Monday to visit my favorite site for the for first time in 2018. I woke up Monday morning to an inch of snow in the Hudson Valley. Headed north on the Thruway to Albany through more snow, then west, finally on Route 20. About hallway there, the sky cleared and the snow covering reduced to patches. After a three and a half hour trip I arrived at Deep Springs Road. True to Dave's word, the site was completely snow free. The temp was in the mid 40s, sunny and warm enough that later in the day I was removing my outerwear. Deep Springs Road quarry is the eastern most exposure of the Windom Shale, the Moscow Formation which lies at the top of the Hamilton Group- which is also the top of the Middle Devonian. It is the same formation exposed at Penn Dixie. What is notable about this site is the biodiversity- at least 20 species of brachiopods, more than 20 species of bivalves, at least 5 species of gastropods, plus cephalopods, trilobites, phyllocarids, plants, etc. Dave's recent excavation left me a lot of rock to split which took up most of my day. I did my own excavation as well. Here are some of my finds: My favorite find of the day- the largest Spyroceras nautiloid I've found at the site so far. A Cimitaria recurva, a bivalve in 3D. Pholadella radiate, another bivalve.

    Ambocoelia umbonata (Conrad 1842)

    Mediospirifer posted a fossil in Brachiopods

    Found as surface float near the top of the Windom exposure, a few feet below the Genundewa Limestone at Penn-Dixie Quarry in Hamburg, NY. A very common fossil in Hamilton Group sediments. Similar to Emanuella praeumbona, distinguished from E. praeumbona by the hinge width; the hinge of A. umbonata spans the width of the valve, while that of E. praeumbona is narrower. A. umbonata has a nearly flat brachial valve, while that of E. praeumbona shows a convex profile. Full-sized specimens of A. umbonata are also not as large as E. praeumbona. Originally designated Orthis umbonata. A. umbonata has been defined as the type species of Ambocoelia by Hall. References: Wilson, K. A. “Field Guide to the Devonian Fossils of New York” (2014). Paleontological Research Institution Special Publication No. 44. Linsley, D. M. “Devonian Paleontology of New York” (1994). Paleontological Research Institution Special Publication No. 21. Hall, J.

    Emanuella praeumbona (Hall 1857)

    Mediospirifer posted a fossil in Brachiopods

    Found as surface float near the top of the Windom exposure, a few feet below the Genundewa Limestone at Penn-Dixie Quarry in Hamburg, NY. Distinguished from Ambocoelia umbonata by the hinge width; the hinge of A. umbonata spans the width of the valve, while that of E. praeumbona is narrower. E. praeumbona also shows a convex profile to the brachial valve, and grew to a larger size. E. praeumbona is common in the Hamilton Group only within the upper layers of the Windom Member. Originally designated Orthis praeumbona, later assigned to Ambocoelia, then reassigned to Emanuella in 1990. References: Hall, J. Palaeontology of New York v. 4.
