    Squid?

    I found this in broome county, New York. I think it might be some type of squid or something. You can see the grooves on the fossil if you look closely. Also why does the fossil have a hint of purple in it?
  2. Hello all, this is my first post, and is an ID task. I found this on Braklesham beach, which has a few offshore Eocene clay deposits rich in shark teeth and Ray pallets, as well as turtle carapace. I'm not sure what this is, but it is very similar in size (1.5cm) and shape to squid beaks I have dissected in biology, and was wondering if it might be the beak of a cephalopod. I'm sorry for the poor photos, I'll try get some better ones with my camera. All the best, Tsav.
  3. Found yesterday, Frinton on Sea, Essex... Be keen to know thoughts!

    Newbie - Big Brook

    Newbie here, to the forum and fossil hunting. I live in the suburbs of Philadelphia, and have a couple spots within an hours drive, however so far have only visited Big Brook on a few different occasions with my family over the past month. Definitely addicted! Thought I would share some of my finds. All are fairly common, but totally amazing to me. Not sure on the ID of a few of them, and some I'm not sure if they are even fossils. I find your mind tries to make something out of nothing, especially with rocks. In any case, thanks for looking, and appreciate in advance any feedback, good or bad! 1979 3 3/4" Boba Fett for scale
  5. Recently purchased this squid from the Tucson show. Looked a little off to me compared to the photos online but still bought it on a whim. Does it have any significant touch-ups or fakery? Thanks in advance!

    Squid ?!?

    Hello , I want to know what this organism is . It looks to be a squid or some type or worm. This is from Bolivia .
  7. Hello, I recently got this section of fossilized squid pen of the giant squid Tusoteuthis longa, from the Cretaceous Niobrara Chalk of Kansas, USA. It measures about 7cm long. After receiving it I realized that it seemed rather unstable, with small "splinters" flaking off like a fragile piece of wood. I hear it is recommended to consolidate vertebrate bones with something like Butvar B-76, but what about something like this squid pen? I don't know what the material even is. Does anyone have experience preserving these? Thanks.

    Found this hiking in Arlington Tx, state route 360. Trinity river flood plain. Lil help please, also im terrible at tech fyi. So please bare with me.
  11. I've always been fascinated by the Cretaceous sea and its myriad of terrifying carnivores, many that would've made Jaws look meek. After watching BBC's Sea Monsters, I made it my goal to compile a box of sea monster fossils. I started this journey 10 years ago, and finally completed the box recently. Allow me to present my Predators of the Cretaceous Sea collection, and take you on a journey to the most dangerous sea of all times. The box measures 20.25 inches long. Inside are 24 unique predator fossils. I will introduce them from left to right, top to bottom: Rhombodus binkhorsti Age: 70.6 - 66 mya | late Cretaceous Formation: Severn Formation Locality: Bowie, Maryland, USA Size: 1 meters Diet: Molluscs and crustaceans art by Nobu Tamura --------------- Polyptychodon interruptus Age: 105.3 - 94.3 mya | Cretaceous Formation: Stoilensky Quarry stratigraphic unit Locality: Stary-Oskol, Belgorod Oblast, Russia Size: Maybe 7 meters (This is a tooth taxon so size is not confirmed) Diet: Anything it could catch Note: If you consider Polytychodon a nomen dubium, then this is a Pliosauridae indet. art by Mark Witton ----------------- Prognathodon giganteus Age: 70.6 - 66 mya | late Cretaceous Formation: Ouled Abdoun Basin Locality: Khouribga Phosphate Deposits, Morocco Size: 10-14 meters Diet: Everything art by SYSTEM(ZBrushCentral) --------------- Coloborhynchinae indet. Age: 99.7 - 94.3 mya | late Cretaceous Formation: Kem Kem Beds Locality: Southeast Morocco Size: 7 meters (high estimate) Diet: Fish and cephalopods
  12. I was recently skimming through one of William Buckland's papers (in Geology and mineralogy considered with reference to natural theology). In the paper, he discussed (and illustrated) a squid fossil that had been found by Mary Anning, in the Lias/Jurassic of Lyme Regis in 1828 (see pic below). Would anyone happen to know in what museum this fossil currently is? Taken from Buckland (1837), plate 44'', fig. 1.

    General Octopus Info

    Has anyone seen anything like this? Just looking for any helpful info.
  14. Metopolychas

    Some kind of belemnite?

    I'm guessing it's a squid of some kind, but I didn't think they split diagonally? Pictures to come.

    Belemnite Squid Fossil

    Thought I would share this new piece we just got. Belemnite is fossilised squid over 100 million years from Coober Pedy, South Australia. Photos:

    Ichthyosaur stomach contents

    From the album: Marine reptiles and mammals

    Cross sections of the stomach, full of squid/cephalopod hooks and beaks, of an early Jurassic ichthyosaur (Stenopterygius quadriscissus). One slice has the animals ribs, the lighter tan objects, around the stomach, while the other is entirely of the stomach contents.

    Small Belemnite collection

    From the album: Holzmaden fossils

    A few Belemnites I found. I am quite proud of the large piece even though it is not complete.

    Another image of it from a top view

    Belemnite(unprepared)

    From the album: Holzmaden fossils

    This is a Belemnite I found in Holzmaden, almost complete but missing the tip. I have not prepared it yet but quite a nice little fossil.
  20. Acanthoteuthis is now considered as a member of the Belemnotheutida, a suborder of the Belemnitida. The ink sack suggests that this species lived not deeper than 200m.
