Howdy everyone! I'm from Southern Missouri and walk the creek beds all the time in search of arrowheads and more. When I was a kid 10 years ago I found this dinosaur head around rockbridge Missouri on our property. I finally wanted to find out what it belong to as only one Dinosaur has ever been identified in missouri?. Thank you everyone!

The fossils in this stone are probably Thamnopora sp., a tabulate coral common in the Verde Valley of Arizona. Normally it appears in dolomite from the late Devonian (Frasnian), This specimen was picked up way outside the normal range, in an ancient riverbed, where rocks generally come from the Martin and Redwall limestone beds to the west. What's weird (to me) is that this stone matrix is impervious to HCl. No reaction at all, as if it's chalcedony, but it doesn't look or feel like chert or any other chalcedony I'm familiar with. Does anyone have an idea what this stone may be and what that might say about its age?

Hello all. I have found two more teeth that I have no clue about. The first one is very small, orectolobid size, but has a distinct central cusp and accessory cusps on both sides. The tooth is less than 1 1/4 mm in size, and I have never seen a tooth this small with accessory cusps. Any idea as to what it could be? The second one has a distinctive series of ridges on one side of the tooth. Again, I have no idea what it could be. Someone at the museum here suggested a multituberculate mammal, but I have serious doubts about that. The cusp is more selachian than mammal. I will show the second tooth in another post.

I went camping over in West Texas in Kickapoo Caverns state park this past weekend. While I was hiking around I noticed dozens of these formation that were jutting out of the limestone boulders and bedrock. Not sure what they are but they seem to be shaped like small trees or medium thick branches. Anyone know what they are?

I wondered if anyone might be able to help with this oddity. It's about 4-5 cm long, and was found on the beach at Wells-Next-the-Sea in North Norfolk, UK. Exciting dinosaur brain? Mundane piece of flint? Put me out of my misery, please!

Micro Fossil From Conglomerate Found in East Central FL
timhigg posted a topic in Micro-paleontology
I picked up a nice chunk of conglomerate that had an obvious fossil tooth embedded in it, but became interested in what small micro fossils might be in it. I experimented with a small piece of fossil bearing rock and found that the acid destroyed the fossils amost as much as the rock, so as a result I turned to just doing surface scans. I eventually decided to remove one surface micro fossil that seemed to be pretty much on the surface of the conglomerate. The results were satsifactory, but I don't know what the micro fossil is. It is roughly one mm in diameter and maybe half a mm thick. It is small enough that it stretched my limits and the limits of my imaging system. I think it could be a fish tooth or scale, but have no idea. It definitely has some form and detail to it. I don't think it is just a broken piece. The first two photos show the item still attached to the conglomerate. One photo shows a bit of conglomerate still attached to one side. For size, the one line you see is .5 mm in thickness. I consider it a success simply because I was able to extricate one small fossil from conglomerate and get some photos. If it is actually something identifiable, I'd be doubly happy. Thanks to all.

Fossil was found back yard. Approximately 3 miles from the Guadalupe river. The top of the skull, teeth, and what I believe to be part of the spinal column is rock. The rest of the fossil is encased in lime stone. Which I have slowly been scrapping away. Any information regard this fossils would be greatly appreciated.

Hello everyone! This is a small fossil I found months ago in the Beaumaris Formation, Victoria, Australia. I've looked through the Fossils of Beaumaris PDF but cannot find anything similar. The measurements are as follows: - 2.5 cm L - 2.4 cm W - 1.2 cm D I have attached some images below which will hopefully be of help!

Good morning. I have two unidentified fossil corals requiring an ID. Does anyone know what type of coral these are. I believe it was another yard sale purchase from many years ago.
