This was found between glacial and non glacial quaternary sediment. Slightly north of Ocean shores, WA. NOT on the beach, but where the forest meets the beach and erosion is occuring. I brought this to the only fossil shop local to me and all they recommended bringing it to another shop hours away so trying my luck here! You can see the vertebrae which after taking a soft brush to curves around in the shape of a I, the clearly visible vertebrae at top are the largest in with, however the length of each remains the same as the width lessens. There are at least 9 verte

Dear collectors! I'm curious If someone interesting for my collection of Mollusc, mainly gastropods and bivalves from tertiary of Europe. I have more than 1000 specimens! I'm open-minded and accept all offers! I am interested in quality fossils and NOT quantity!

I need help identifying this fossil, or eliminating possibilities. I found this while searching for Native American artifacts and other fossils. It was in a stream. Found in North East Nebraska. Geologic research says the area it was found is within the Ogallala formation from the Tertiary Period. Several members of a FB group think I might have a fossil fungi and have asked for samples,, which I am reluctant to attempt to chip off myself. Several of the photos show signs of fungi. I know that fossilized mushrooms are extremely rare in the fossil record, usually only being found encased in amb

Hello, A colleague of mine shared some pictures of an interesting rock she found. It was found loose by a creek in the Denver area. It looks to me very much like an inner era, although it may well be something else. None of us are able to positively identify it. I'm sure someone here can confirm whether or not it is a fossil, and what it might be. The creek in question flows from the east, and my understanding is it would have to be a tertiary or quaternary fossil if it is indeed a fossil.

In preparation for a planned outing next week with my oldest son to hunt for fossils in the Lincoln Creek formation, I went to an outcrop of the local Blakely formation this afternoon, and now that I'm primed to spot concretions, I saw a few right away. I only grabbed one to bring home (just had a small bag), but I may go back and grab some more later. Since I lack the proper tools to prepare a fossil that's in a concretion (at least for now!), I just used my trusty hammer. I'm not really seeing any fossil remains here, but it does have a really interesting funnel shaped part com

So I found this one near Tukwila Washington. I think the first one is just a clam of some kind and the second one I have NO IDEA. If anyone has a clue please let me know. I can take new pictures if needed. (Area I collected it from was in a mountain in Tukwila (more like a huge hill) and it used to be a shallow ocean back millions of years ago)

Any Recommendations of Good Vertebrate Focused Fossil Books With Images
Kurufossils posted a topic in Fossil Literature
Hello, I have been recently shopping around for fossil books that are more image heavy to look around at on my downtime, the few I have so far seem to be generally focused on all fossils and contain hardly any fossil vertebrates from the mesozoic or tertiary periods. Thus I am on the look out for any books that would be good fits, there was one I cannot remember the name for the life of me that I think is a large recent book that I've seen in B&N that goes over all time periods in full color with fossil photos/creature images, if anyone knows maybe which one that could be I was definitely -

Found this yesterday in Monmouth co. Normally a Cretaceous stream but tertiary items do occasionally pop up. At first I thought it was an iron concretion but has a slightly different hue to it. Don’t think it’s modern either...

This weekend I went on another fossil hunting trip with my dad. We went to a place called Bacchus Marsh which is around 65 km east of Melbourne. Here we went looking for Tertiary plant fossils such as Laurus and Cinnamonum. The site was a creek bed under an old bridge. The bridge was located next to the Western Freeway which connects Bacchus Marsh to Melbourne, and extends north to south, eventually emptying into the Werribee river (about 2km away). The creek also goes under the freeway through two tunnels and you can look for fossils on both sides of the freeway, but the side near the br

Hello, this is a carnivore skull from China (I bought it many years ago in Germany). All I know is that it was found in the Gansu area, though I don't know how certain this information is. The overall length is 18 cm. The first pictures are from the left side, the last ones from the right side of the skull. The distal part of the molar on the right side is broken off. I have an idea what it could be, but I'm not sure. (I'll tell about it later, but I don't want to influence brainstorming with this information at the moment). Any suggestions? Thanks, araucaria1959

I found this some years back at Pescadero Beach in California. I don't know if it's fossilized but if it is I think it would be from the Tertiary. Any help much appreciated.

FLYKOwswish this article has some bearing on the following issues: Mammal biochronology,the precise timing and/or speed of the G(reat)A(merican)B(iotic)I(nterchange),it contains some remarks on mammal taxa(however brief), magnetostratigraphic resolution from the Miocene to the Pleistocene, the closing of the Panama isthmus, and the possible diachroneity of mammal taxon appearances. There are NO taxa illustrated,and the authors' (infrequent)use of "heterochroneity " is unfortunate . If you have Woodburne(2012): this might be up your alley I liked it,but I'm weird t
