    Nothosaurus tooth from France

    Hi everyone! I added this Nothosaurus tooth from France to the collection. Upper Muschelkalk (Triassic), about 245 million years old. Found in France in the province of Sarrebourg, department of Moselle. The tooth is 11 mm large. I would like information on how to identify it, and learn how to distinguish the species by comparing the tooth with other Nothosaur fossils found in the same area. Can Nothosaur be described as a marine reptile even though it is semi-aquatic?
  2. Hello, I have some bonebed material from: Gr. Gröningen Crailsheim, Germany Triassic, Ipper Muschelkalk. its a Nothosaur bone sticking out, but a small part is in another stone (piece broke before I acquired it). I tried to scratch it out, but that will takes ages and doesnt seem to look too good. I heard about acid prepping, would that be a good idea with this? Its similar stuff as: http://www.thefossilforum.com/topic/111818-lets-talk-blezingeria/ if so, how to go at this? Anyone has experience with this?
  3. This is listed on one of our favorite auction sites. I am no expert on these the seller lists it as a Nothosauria however they also list it as Jurassic and my understanding is this species would be Triassic. Additionally they list it as an amphibian but this would be a reptile so again a lot of red flags, No location is listed so I have inquired and am awaiting a response. What are y'all thoughts on this? Its actually listed as Sinohydrosaurus and was obtained from a local auction so no provenance.
  4. Hi everyone! I have just returned from a fieldschool to Poland which was organized by the BVP (Belgium Society for Paleontology) in association with the Universities of Opole and Gdansk. The fieldschool started on the 9th july and ended on july 17. The first 2-3 days of the trip took place in the historic city of Gdansk which lies by the Baltic Sea where the main focus was on Baltic Amber. This included lectures, workshops, a small museum tour and some trips to the beach in search for amber. For the 2nd part of the trip we travelled to the south towards Opole and more specifically the Jurapark and digsite in Krasiejow where we had multiple lectures, workshops, and fieldwork in both Krasiejow and other quarries in the area. So in this topic I wanted to make a day by day report on this amazing trip and experience. Since we travelled by car I only returned yesterday evening so most of the finds still have to be photographed/prepped so expect them somewhere at the end of this topic (which might also take a few days to complete.)
  5. Hi everyone! I've always had a love of paleontology and been fossil-hunting as a child (I've found mainly plant fossils, some incomplete trilobites, some unknown fragments of bone). The fossils I've found were usually incomplete and very weathered by the elements, but it was very rewarding knowing that I was holding a piece of real prehistoric history. I've always been fascinated by dinosaurs and other prehistoric reptiles, but never had the pleasure and luck of finding one "in the wild". So of course I took the natural route of going online! I'm very very inexperienced in terms of actually purchasing fossils, and I know that there is always the possibility of fakes, even with the most common/plentiful fossil. Any tips would be greatly appreciated as I venture out into the unfamiliar world of fossil-purchasing. I'm interested in adding a Keich into my collection. I came across these 2 Keichousaurus listings, and I'm wondering if they are genuine or fake? And if they are real, if they are "good/decent" specimens in terms of prep, quality, and any other factors that I should be aware of?

    Sauropterygia bones

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A 13 cm long stone with three nothosaur vertebrae and another unidentified small bone piece from a triassic "Bonebed" in a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). The verts are very small, especially the one beside the bone fragment. The bigger ones are about 2 cm long. Detailed pictures:

    Sauropterygia bones

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A 20 cm long stone with a couple of bones from a triassic "Bonebed" in a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). On the plate are two vertebrae, one rib and two unidentified bones. The quality of the bones is partly not good (especially the vert in the middle is bad preserved). The prep was not too difficult but it took quite a long time to finish it. Some more pictures:

    Nothosaur tooth

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A not so nice but big (3.2 cm long) Nothosaur tooth from a triassic "Bonebed" from a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). During the preparation the tooth broke in several pieces but I managed to glue them back... Some more pictures:

    Nothosaur vertebra

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A 3.5 cm long Nothosaur vertebra from a triassic "Bonebed" in a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). The prep work was kinda hard, because the stone is extremely hard and the fossil is very fragile. So I think it took about 3 hours. Here is a picture of the unprepped fossil: And finished: As you can see I decided to restore a bit, but nevertheless I am satisfied with the result

    Nothosaur vertebra

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A Nothosaur vertebra from a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). Its from a thin layer where you can find many bones and teeth from various animals (a triassic Bonebed). I found this one in 2018 but I finished prepping in this month. Its my biggest Nothosaur vertebra until now with a length of a little bit more than 6 cm. Overall the prep work took about 4 hours. A picture of the unprepped fossil: And prepped:

    Nothosaur tooth

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A 1 cm long Nothosaur tooth from a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). Nothosaur teeth are the second commonest kind of teeth after shark teeth in the triassic layer I hunt. Another picture:

    Nothosaur vertebra

    From the album: Triassic vertebrate fossils

    A 5 cm long Nothosaur vertebra from a triassic "Bonebed" in a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). This one is kinda fragile so the prep work was hard. I often give up and tried it another time again. Here is an older state: And another picture of the current state:

    Nothosaur rib

    A partial Nothosaur rib with a length of 11 cm from a triassic bonebed in a quarry in southern Germany (Baden-Württemberg). This was a present of a friend but I prepped it a bit more, Another picture:
