    concretions or fossils?

    hi, i was given some interesting looking rocks. as far as i’m aware they were collected in the carboniferous deposits of northumberland. i cant tell if they’re fossils or just cool concretions… anyone know?
  2. Hello, I noticed this (referring to the long darker line with the circles in it) in one of the shell beds that I collected from Mortimer Forest a couple weeks ago. It doesn't really look like a shell, or part of, to me, so I'm very confused as to what it is. Thank you!
  3. Hi everyone! I found these at Charmouth over the weekend (Black Ven side) and just was hoping for some help with identifything them. I took them to the Heritage centre and Phil said they were likely a bone from the top of the skull of something (not sure what), and maybe a part of a fish - possibly the cheek? He suggested to post on a fossil ID Facebook group which I have done, IMG_4516.MOV IMG_4519.MOV and I thought I would also put it here too just to see if anyone has any ideas. I can add some still images of these videos are not clear enough.
  4. Hello, For a trip for my birthday, my girlfriend and I went to Mortimer Forest in South Shropshire to look for fossils, and we came across quite a few, and as I am very new to fossil collecting (only have been interested within the past few weeks, and I got the DK Fossil Handbook earlier today), I'm not entirely sure what most of them are. I've made a link to an Imgur album for all of the fossils we collected. The caption for each photo is my best guess at an ID, and the numbers denote which rocks they are in. Most of the fossils were found in/by streams, although some were found on the ground by some exposed bedrock. Thank you for reading, and I hope you can help https://imgur.com/a/sT1T0bg
  5. Hello, I recently collected a stromatoporoid fossil from Mortimer Forest in Shropshire, UK. I've since bought some general ID guides to help me with my other fossils, and in the one I'm currently using (Atlas of Invertebrate Macrofossils by John F. Murray) all of the stromatoporoid photos look to be thin sections under a microscope. I've also found a couple sources online that say stromatoporoids are identified using thin slices under a microscope. Unfortunately I don't have access to a high-powered microscope nor equipment/knowledge to produce those thin slices, and so my question is can my ID be taken further than stromatoporoid? I have a x15 hand lens but that is of course nowhere near a microscope. I think by using the general order descriptions in the Atlas I could try, but I'm not sure... Thank you
  6. Hi, My first time on the forum where I would like to ask for help in identifying the following images. The fossil was found in a washed out river bank in East Anglia, UK after several weeks of heavy rain. Having gone through the normal Google image search process, the nearest match I can find is a Bison. Am I on the right track? Thanks in anticipation for your help.
  7. Does anyone recognise this tiny silicified shell? It's about 2mm long. I haven't seen one like it before from the Carboniferous. From the Great Limestone (upper Mississippian, Pendleian Stage) from Weardale, Co. Durham, England. From a piece I've been dissolving in acid, containing silicified brachiopods, gastropods etc. It starts off with an open helical spiral (3rd photo) and then straightens out. It also has clear annular ribs. Although the preservation is imperfect and sugary, I'm sure it's shell replacement rather than internal mould, judging from other fossils in the pece. The various serpulid-like gastropods and microconchids I've come across elsewhere don't have the regular ribbing.

    Aust Plesiosaur fossil ID

    Can someone help me identify the tooth fossil found at Aust Cliff, Bristol, UK? According to the seller, this fossil is presumed to be a Triassic plesiosaur tooth, likely classified as a basal plesiosaur. Nevertheless, the striation pattern on the lingual side of the tooth raises doubts about whether it could also be an ichthyosaur tooth.

    What is it?

  11. I'm planning on visiting port mulgrave this summer but I have read multiple reports about the access to the beach which do not sound great. Could anyone describe to me what the situation is like right now and if there are any plans to fix the access before summer 2024? Thanks, FossilLerp2

    Fossil? Port Mulgrave Beach

    The other day I found this strange looking rock on the beach at Port Mulgrave- a well known fossil hunting site near Whitby. I'd be interested to know if anyone has any ideas as to what it might be before I go ahead and hammer it out...it looks like a typical nodule from the area with several distinct lumps. I hypothesise a group of Ammonites but this is only a guess. Any help would be much appreciated!
  13. Hi, I had a gander for the first time at a local beach, one of many known for its fossil. I’ve had a look online for these that I have found and thought was worth looking at further (after washing off) but am still unsure. I wondered what others here would think too or add. Or had anywhere to refer me to. thanks in advance. photos numbered 1. I don’t think this one is anything special but noticed it because of the indent, but couldn’t find anything on it. 2. thought this one looked tooth like at the time, I’ve also noticed the lines down one of the sides. Though having looked at others that have collected teeth from the same site note it does not look like any of these. I have looked online at belamites but not sure of this either. 3. I saw the little horse show shaped marks on this one. Having done some research I believe it could be the remains of a worm burrowing? This one on the side has an indent, could this be a coral? 4. Picked this one up initially because of the shape but noticed there was more to it on each side. Looks like a tail on one side then spines on the other where the ridged edges are. This one is very fragile (perhaps almost skull like (the reason I noticed it at the site)) and have not been able to find much online about it either.

    Ammonite ID needed

    Hi everyone! Archaeologist here, looking for help with an Ammonite ID 😄 My dad and I found these two Ammonites near Sherborne in Dorset, UK. If anyone is able to tell me the species/age, I would be so grateful!

    What might this be?

    We just found this near to an ancient hill fort.

    "Carpoid" from UK?

    Hello, I have this fossil from the Middle Ordovician Hope shales, Leigh, Shropshire, UK. It was labeled as a carpoid "Anfesta sp.". However I realize that it has complete bilateral symmetry and no plate-like structure, even for a carpoid. Besides, I googled "Anfesta" and that is a Ediacaran organism with triradial symmetry, so evidently incorrect. What could this be? I can't find anything like it online, but maybe a brachiopod internal mold?

    Charmouth Pyrite Ammonites and Extra

    Hello everyone - I am getting into fossil collecting and recently had a trip to Charmouth, UK. I would like to try to ID some of the pyrite ammonite species I found there. I've written what I thought they might be based on information and photos I have found online but I am very much a beginner so I would like some help checking them. I've also included another pyrite fossil which I'm not sure what it is at the end. 35mm long paperclip for scale. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! 1: Both Promicroceras? 2: Not sure - maybe Echioceras? 3: Oxynoticeras? 4: Another Echioceras? 5: No idea - looks like a fragment of something conical with horizontal bands around it which can be sort of seen in the first image - mostly encased in pyrite.
  21. Hello again all. Thank you for being so helpful last time. Our Wiltshire driveway has proven rather fruitful…! Since the scleractinian coral, daughter has since found these two (plus another coral). She is, as ever, super excited. Any thoughts? (We are Wiltshire UK and the fossils were in our driveway stones. The stone with the little star is approx 3cm by 6cm and the stone with the layered lines is about 2cm by 3cm. We’ve started to put them into little display pots). Thank you in advance!
