Found this last year at a quarry in Cobleskill, New York on an outing with the New York Paleontological Society. The area of the quarry we were collecting in was identified as the Onondaga Limestone which is Middle Devonian. The different members were all jumbled together so I can't be more specific. Is this a concretion with fossil material or a sponge or whatever? Other fossils found there include corals, brachiopods, crinoids, bryozoans, and trilobites. The specimen is is approximately one inch in diameter and more disc shaped than round. Thanks for your input.

Another successful creek walk yesterday and found this huge beauty. I think it may be in the Pachyporidae family, but not sure what species or if it's something else. From what I understand, in my region (Finger Lakes, NY) they are found to the north in Onondaga limestone and were brought south by the glaciers. I never thought I would find anything like this here. Glacial deposits are so cool. The matrix has a pink, blue, gray hue in natural light and I've seen quite a bit of it in recent days.

Hello all! So I’ve been messing around with my collection lately and I came across this piece. It’s from the Onondaga Limestone, probably from Onondaga County. I was wondering if there’s any chance it’s a weathered piece of a Terataspis Grandis? Or if it’s something else entirely. Thanks for the help! Owen
