The Devonian period is known as "The Age of Fish", but could also be known as "The Age of Brachiopods." In the Early / Lower Devonian, brachiopods reached the height of their diversity towards its end in the Emsian. We see the ancestral groups occurring, lingulids, craniids, orthids, protorthids, pentamerids, rhynchonellids and strophomenids, as well as the later successful groups we have seen before such as atrypids, athyrids and orthotetids, plus the rise of spiriferids, spiriferinids and productids and the beginning of the terebratulids. By the end of the Devonian , several of these g

New Carboniferous- Permian brachiopods from Klaipeda district Western Lithuania
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Good morning everyone.

Please help to identify genera of these brachiopod specimens, it would help much to know the precise age of each boulder. The largest brachiopod specimens are up to 3 cm length, the smallest rhynchonellid is 5 mm length. -
Carboniferous and Permian boulders in Lithuania- discovery needs confirmation!
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Dear Guys, During the last several years i detected unknown truth talking about Lithuanian boulders- the Carboniferous and Permian marine rocks are very numerous and their age is various- there can be found almost each stage of Carboniferous and Permian. The main rock types are three- dolomite and limestone with masses of brachiopods that is various in color, stromatolite limestone with mollusks and unidentified cephalon like fossils, and the last- lacustrine limestone with coelacanth scales and possible plant remains (Carboniferous rhabdodermatids are very numerous).

Found as surface float on the scree pile at the Windom exposure. Originally assigned to Rhynchonella prolifica, currently assigned to Camarotoechia. Appears to have been assigned to several genera over time, including Stenocisma and Cupularostrum. Refs: Linsley, D. M. Devonian Paleontology of New York.

On the 26.12.2016 i was in the quarry Moldenberg near Heidenheim an der Brenz. There you can find fossils from the white jurassic. Besides of this highlight: http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php?/topic/70839-what-is-this/ I also found many brachiopods, bivalves, crinoid stems, bryozoans ... First some pictures of the quarry: Its was a very cold and dark day so shadefully they are not that nice... Now the "real" quarry: And the view on a part of the city Heidenheim:
