While removing an unknown sponge by acid dissolution from the Permian Fort Apache Member of the Schnebly Hill Formation from northern Gila County in Arizona I found several silicified brachiopods with spines. Several Bellaclathrus spinosus brachiopods were present ranging from 0.75 to 1.5 inch across and had spines as long as 1 inch. The pedicle valve of the brachiopod in the first and second photos is about 1 inch wide not including spines. This is the finest specimen with spines that I have found. The third photo shows the brachiopod attached to several others of the same species. Fourth and fifth photos are from Winters 1963 reference below. Taxonomy per Fossilworks: http://fossilworks.org/bridge.pl?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=27149 Winters, Stephen S. 1963. Supai Formation (Permian) of eastern Arizona.

Timor West Basleo Sonnebait formation Fossils ID if poss please
Timorgirl posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hi Fossil buffs, I trust that you are staying safe and well. I have finally pulled my head out of my uni books...yes I graduated.,.and am rediscovering my Timorese fossils. Leading out here... 1018 Tabulata and....I have no idea but would appreciate a heads up if you do know. Do you think 1020 is Mammoth? And I would really like to know what type of BI? Brach? 1019 is.,..this one showing lovely internal crystal form. And 1021 some have speculated that it is an aggravation on a crinoid stem,,,,any other thoughts. Also 1024...crinoid anal sacks ? 633 i found on the surface of a fossil site that was predominantly ammonites...there were some very interesting ammonites. And 792/793 have been speculated as either fossilised dinosaur poo or a gastropod that has gastro..... with a blown up belly fossil...any thoughts? Thanking you in advance and stay well stay sane....look at your fossils often..thumb.JPG.62e1db5e94a6aa2091c0c5bfa691a9ef.JPG)

Hi everyone! This school year has been incredibly busy which is why I haven't been on the forum as much as I'd like to be. However, about a month ago I ordered 3 lbs of washed "Texas Red Beds" (Permian-aged) matrix from PaleoTex - it arrived a few days ago, and I just couldn't wait until March Break to start looking through it (mainly because our March Break has been moved to mid-April - that's way too long to wait!!!) so I began the search last night. I've found a bunch of teeth and bones so far, and I was hoping to get some identification help for some of the larger/more interesting items that I've found so far. Thanks in advance to all who can help! I'll tag a few people who might be interested and/or who might be able to help: @grandpa @JamieLynn @jdp @dinodigger Here we go... Tooth 1 (three views) Tooth 2 (three views) Tooth 3 (three views) Tooth 4 (three views) Tooth 5 (three views) Tooth 6 (three views) Tooth plate ! (one view) Tooth plate 2 (one view) Bone 1 (one view) Bone 2 (two views) Bone 3 (one view)

Howdy everyone. I have found some great resources on here for finding cretaceous fossils here in Texas. I also fiddled around the coast and found a turtle scute and some shark teeth. I'm having a really hard time finding any information of places that are open to the public, or for that matter any spots in Texas open to the public (as 97.8% of the state is privately owned) If any Texans read this and wanna help a fellow fossiler out, please point me towards some good spots. I live in Corpus Christi (2 1/2 hours from San Antonio or 7+ hours to Dallas so please nothing too far North lol) I'm excited to find all kinds of fossils. Clams get me Jumping so don't worry about finding the full mammoth. So far I know about Whiskey Bridge, San Antonio road cuts and Galveston beach finds. Anyone know anything else?

Ullmannia frumentaria is the most common and long known conifer of the copper shale. The plant has densely standing, relatively short, spirally arranged leaves.

This fossil comes from Richards Spur and it is Permian. I think it's a coprolite with a bone bitten by the predator that the coprolite belongs to, but I'm not very sure. What do you think about it? Thank you.

This a Permian Gastropod I found in County Durham, at Ford Quarry. I have been using this guide http://www.limestonelandscapes.info/media/11163/Zechstein-Reef-Fossils-and-their-palaeoecology-WEB/pdf/ZechsteinReefFossilsWEB.pdf to try to determine its genus, if its possible. There are a few other disarticulated remains if this helps. Does anyone here know enough about Molluscs to help? This is counted as Locality 2 in the guide, there are three possible genus, Yunnania, Naticopsis and Mourlonia. The gastropod is about 4cm in diameter at its widest point.

Hi All, It's been awhile since I've posted here, but I've kept up my interest in fossils! I'm currently working on finishing my Ph.D. up here in Ohio (wildlife conservation) but am shifting my focus to outreach and education endeavors mostly. I currently host a wildlife-oriented YouTube channel but am interested in doing a series on fossils and paleontology in the future (either on our current channel or on a different one). My idea is to do a six-part series on the Paleozoic that starts with the Cambrian and works through the Permian. In each episode, I would visit a well-known (ideally) public fossil site with good representation of fossils from that period and show some fossil collecting with reflections on what life was like during that time period and ending with a showcase of the fossils we found that are then animated to life as the backdrop fades into a depiction of that time period. That last part will be a tall order, but I've got a a graphics/animation guy on board to (hopefully) figure it out. While I have ready access to good Ordovician (planning on mostly filming at Trammel Park, Cincinnati), Silurian (Oakes Quarry near Dayton), Devonian (Penn Dixie), and Carboniferous (Mazon Creek) sites; Cambrian and Permian are a bit tougher. I know the Burgess Shale in Canada would be the premier locale to film Cambrian (though not collect), but I think that long trip is not practical for me for the foreseeable future. Permian sites seem to be more cryptic and also mostly out west/southwest. However, I know PA/WV have some Permian/Cambrian exposures. Can anyone direct me to sites or resources that might help me find a good location to film (i.e. public, legal collecting, and preferably okay with publicizing the site)? If those three criteria cannot easily be met for Permian/Cambrian in this region, maybe at least somewhere I could film fossils but not collect? I apologize if this request/post is inappropriate here and appreciate any help you can offer! I won't provide a direct link to my YouTube channel directly (in case that is frowned on), but our channel name is Life Underfoot if you want to see the kind of content we produce (as stated earlier, all currently living wildlife stuff at the moment). I'd also be interested in featuring experts/researchers in some episodes so links to any prominent folks studying particular time periods would be appreciated as well! I hope to start doing some local filming this winter/spring (Ordovician/Silurian) then make the bigger trips out to Penn Dixie/Mazon this summer once vaccinated and travel is simpler/safer. Hopefully, we can film this series during 2021 and release it during 2022. Thanks again, -Andrew

It's been a long time since I shared some finds- this is a really nice Dimetrodon caudal (tail) vertebra from a medium size ddon. The short, blade-like neural spine is the tell for position. Newest project for us is prepping a 12 foot by 6 foot block containing remains of at least 6 Dimetrodons. Hoping to get it into the lab by April... will start posting photos soon. Best, Chris

Hey y'all! Need help with some Permian material. 1. Thought it was Xenacanth shark, but it looks odd to me (~ 3 mm): 2. Think it's a fish spine (~ 3 mm): 3. No idea; a tooth of some kind (~ 1 mm):
