Hey everyone, I've been trying to plan a little trip for me and my family to go on a little fossil hunt. I live in Bartlesville Oklahoma and I have several nice places I can go to find fossils all over. Mainly mississippian and Pennsylvanian. I'm looking for areas within an hour or so drive from where I live. I'm aware of the pliestocene finds in the arkansas river in tulsa area. I'd love for someone to send me maps or geologic surveys showing what areas in the topography, and other recomendations. Places I've been to worth noting: Kaw Lake spillway, Ponca City (good shells everywhere) Bartlesville Mound (excellent source of Chrinoids and some bits of coral) Hudson lake (Bartlesville water source, 1- chrinoid calyx found, tons of bivalves and other shells) Turkey Creek, Bartlesville (uncountable amounts of horn coral)

Found another type of Brachiopod (see below) through careful searching near Skiatook Lake. It has been harder to spot then the other 3 types of brachiopods that I have found and which this forum's members have been awesome in helping me to identify: Neospirifer dunbari. Meekella striatocoastata, and Septimyalina perattenuata. I could use help once again in identifying this type. I believe its a brachiopod and not a bivalve because it seems to have a line of symmetry from the front to the back (along the top) Notice the back has that characteristic dip in it. It definitely has been more satisfying finding this type because its bigger (up to 3 inches) and usually harder to spot as it seems to have the same color & texture as the surrounding outcrops. Has taken an hour to find one sometimes.
