From the album: Fossildude's Middle Devonian Hamilton Group Fossils
This was found at 18 Mile Creek near Buffalo NY. ~385 Million Years Old Middle Devonian, Givetian Hamilton Group, Ludlowville and Moscow Formations.

I collected the two places the same day, and unfortunately dur

I went looking the other day and found these star shaped Crinoids. This rock is full of them It was located in the twins peaks limestone group of the Jurassic time. I believe it is from the species C. Pentacrinus. Is this correct?

Is this an Echinoid? I found this on the end of a piece of pyritized coral I received from Bob O'Donnell. It looks like the teacher gave the coral a gold star for brilliance. It is approximately 1mm across it's points. Microscope: Zeiss Stemi 305edu, 2x photo eyepiece. Camera: Canon 1000d: 1x objective (2x mag.) 2x objective (4x mag.) 6x objective (12x mag.)

My 9 year old boy found several of these on the side of a hill near gun sight mountain Alaska. The area is know for sea shell fossils, we found several clam shells in the same area. This is right in the middle of the Matanuska formation.
