Need some help identifying this fossil from North Attleboro, Massachusetts
Dino2033 posted a topic in Fossil ID
I found this rock with both a Neuropteris scheuchzeri and this mystery fossil. I have seen nothing quite like it on the web but I probably just missed it. Part of is seems to overlap the Neuropteris and it seems to have a wide and thin part with the wide parts being further from the Neuropteris. Any help is greatly appreciated. Last picture is through a microscope and focused on the overlapping part.

I found this fossil plant in North Attleboro, Massachusetts and was wondering if anyone knew the species. For me it seems to be either Sphenopteris, Eremopteris, Karinopteris, or Mariopteris. It definitely could be something else.

A Few Recent Finds at Penn Dixie, a shallow marine Devonian Site in upstate NY
Biotalker posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Super folks and fossils! I had a decent trip to Penn Dixie with the experts recently and thought I would share a few finds. The first is the lower third of a crinoid calyx. I measures 4 cm and has an intact stem attachment segment. Aside from stems, its the first decent crinoid part I have found since 2015. I am fascinated by the geometry of the echinoderm organization- 6 around the stem, them 12 around the next whirl, makes we wish I had the entire calyx.

Hello, just recently I did my first fossil hunting at Turimetta Beach Sydney around the exposure of Triassic shale. I found a nice dicroidium fossil I think (after seeing some similar posts from this location) and two more which I'm unsure of the species (picture below and sorry one is without scale). Any ideas would be appreciated of what species or plant group these two fossils are from which look very much like a leaf or stem stem structure. Thanks!

Found this in Goshen Oregon, not sure what formation it falls under, I have only heard it referred to as North Goshen Flora. I have read it has been dated to the Late Oligocene. Wondering if anyone recognizes what it could be. I know Pinus, Quercus, Hydrangea, Acer, Plantanus, Cinnamomum, and Sassafras have been identified in the formation, perhaps it is a seed or flower from one of those? Thanks for any help. Please be kind, I'm new and just looking to learn.

Found this slab of limestone digging out an old garden wall. I think it’s a large plant or small tree, approximately 15 inches long and 3-4 inches across. Not much detail visible in either end. Any help?

Hello everyone, I’ve found this fossil in Nova Scotia, on the shore of Cobequid Bay. I can’t tell if it’s a plant or a fish fossil. I believe it’s a plant. I’ve done some google searches and haven’t found anything that looks like it! would love your help in identifying it

Hi! I found this oddball fossil on Caspersen Beach in Venice, Florida. It’s nearly 2 1/2” long with serrations on two sides. It’s got my curiosity up.

Any ideas? My first thought was reptile dermis but probably more like some kind of fan plant closed up. Clearfield County PA.
