First pic shows the modern day terrain of what 6-8 million years ago was the coastline of SE Iberia. Walking here today my Wife found what appears to be a gastropod or snail. But could easily be a nice rock.

Various fossils/possibly contain fossils. From the Coleraine formation of northern Minnesota, mostly ironstone, I think, but one is in mudstone.

I think it looks shockingly similar to charnia. Maybe a cephalopod, snail, or plant? What could it be?- 2 replies

Hi everyone this is matt again today in the creek I found this neat snail fossil here is a few photos -
Possible ID of Trepospira sphaerulata from a local gastropod expert, but he isn’t sure. Similar ones in a group with original specimen at the right. Left is suspect of being related, but it might be.

I can’t identify exactly what these are? Found them in Barton Creek near Austin. They look like a gastropod but haven’t seen any with the rears this out to the edge. Also the other pointy ones are even about the center while this one is near the back end.

Figured I would post a short trip report from yesterday the 27-05-2017. This trip went to the eastern coastline of Denmarks mainland, and the visible cliffs here consist of bryozoan chalk. There is however a layer of roughly 500mm that is composed of cerithium chalk, which is my primary focus since it is here snails, ammonites, crabs, isopods and other fossils not preserved (or rarely) elsewhere reside. During winter, alot of the hardened chalk and flint goes through a freeze-thaw process many times leaving the pieces split in half, often broken at the weake

Many fossils from Lake Michigan are Devonian, but some are later such as this snail fossil. My best guess on the round gray fossil is algae or diatoms. Can anybody confirm my guesses or have a better idea of species for the snail or segmented worm?

I can't seem to find a match for these gastropods, closest I've seen is Cerithium Turriculatum. I hesitate to say they are Cretaceous since I find things in this creek that aren't, this part of creek is QAL, Qt, and Eagle Ford with a little Permian mixed in. There is a pyritized fossil and also something round that I first thought bivalve or different gastropod but it seems too round. Thanks for looking!

Everything I find is from right here in southern Iron County in SE Missouri off of Big Creek & Black River. If someone would be so kind as to put a name to these little guys so I can label them I'd greatly appreciate it. please & thank you The 1st picture is the best looking shell I've ever found but it's only a few centimeters across. . The 2nd picture is of one I just found a few days ago while I was at the creek (Big Creek) dimensions are 1"x1" The last three pictures are kind of a funny story and not at the same time. So one of my ho

On a recent fossil outing, I visited a large shell bed in a creek near Williamsburg, VA that I read to be of the Late Miocene Cobham Bay Member, Eastover Formation. Many of the fossils we found seemed to confirm that this site is Miocene age. We found Chesapecten middlesexensis, Isognomon sp., Glycymeris sp., Ostrea compressirostra, Lirophora sp. However, we also found these three Turritella shell fragments. They measure about 2-3cm in length. I thought these shells looked very similar to the Turritella alticostata posted by @sixgill pete from the Yorktown Fm of NC or the Turritella alumensis
