The Devonian period is known as "The Age of Fish", but could also be known as "The Age of Brachiopods." In the Early / Lower Devonian, brachiopods reached the height of their diversity towards its end in the Emsian. We see the ancestral groups occurring, lingulids, craniids, orthids, protorthids, pentamerids, rhynchonellids and strophomenids, as well as the later successful groups we have seen before such as atrypids, athyrids and orthotetids, plus the rise of spiriferids, spiriferinids and productids and the beginning of the terebratulids. By the end of the Devonian , several of these g

I have had a bit of a weird issue occur. I have shipped to the US without issue a fair few times but lately I have run into some problems with prohibited goods. So I shipped a Mammoth Molar an Ammonite and a stand and the parcel got held up as I didn't declare the stand and mini Ammonite, fair enough no worries, I spoke with Fedex and they said I used a third party (parcel2go) so I must go through them as the agent. Nice and easy to fix and had to re state the contents of the parcel as a Woolly Mammoth molar fossil, and an Ammonite and a stand, all good sorted and done. I have

I am looking for a couple of nice Rudists. Preferably complete or nearly complete. I will trade for just one if it is near museum quality. I have a 3 inch Aldebarania arenitea starfish that is missing a leg, but still a rare find. Its from the Peedee Form. in Rocky Point NC. It has a lot of detail visible and some light matrix which can be removed. If interested I am flexible and would like to see your offers. Inside the US only please.

I have this dinosaur egg and it has these cool textures and in the picture it tells you it size and it’s weight, and it has no embryo inside, so can someone tell me how much this monster is worth

Hello, a quick question. I bought this tooth as Daspletosaurus tooth 2 1/8. it was found in the Judith river formation (exactly?) is it conceivable that it is also a Gorgosaurus tooth? Or is it even possible to determine exactly? I would be very happy about your opinion. Best wishes.

I recently purchased a rather large ammonite via auction from a seller in Singapore. It got held up in customs and I just received a notice of detention asking for documentation to prove it is legal. I wasn't aware that there is any law prohibiting import of fossils of extinct species from that region. Am I mistaken, or does customs just not know what they're doing?

Echinoderm identification help please! Polished cross-section in the Kimmswick Limestone (Late Ordovician: Katian; Missouri, USA) used as facing stone at Missouri Botanical Garden. Possibly the paracrinoid Implicaticystis (once known as Comarocystites)? Specimen is ~25 mm across.

Is it a "Turritella Agate" - chertified fossiliferous lacustrine limestone in the Eocene of Wyoming, USA.or a sample from Brazil or Madagascar? -
Hello, I have been fascinated with rocks and have studied their forms my own my whole life but have no formal training so I am looking here for some guidance on some of the things I see and find. I will be learning from seeing what is posted and discussed here. Most of my current knowledge centers around ancient rock tools so this is a new area for me. I found wht I believe to be a mineralized vertebrae yesterday in Delaware on the beach. It is dense (ie heavier than it appears to be) nothing else similar to it on the beaches as far as rock type or shape. Curious what, if anything, might be de

This one has been sitting in my "interesting but I have no clue" pile for a while. When I found it, I was splitting limestone laying in the stream. I've found that when you split limestone, immediately after splitting you'll get a couple moments of a sharp looking specimen before things start to oxidize. The limestone is a very dark gray, or almost black color. You either see black limestone or white calcite pieces while splitting. I split this particular piece open and right in the middle was a 3-4 cm long, 8 mm wide gold looking rectangle in the middle of the flat broken limeston

Found in Kings county, SD, USA. I assume it's some kind of fossil but have no real idea beyond that.

So, I’m going to be in and around Asheville, NC for vacation and I was wondering whether there are any good fossil collecting localities nearby. Wanted to complete my vacation activity triad (fishing, mineral collecting, and fossil hunting).

I think this is the genus Antiquatonia, but I’m looking for some confirmation. I found this back in April, going through my finds and trying to ID. Found in Limestone. Glenshaw Formation (Conemaugh Group)

Recently aquired this tooth. Sold as a Chubutensis, but some thought it was a meg. Can anybody confirm it for me? Found in the clay from May River, Beaufort County.

It's pretty obvious to me it's a fossil tooth: but from what? Kiowa formation and Albian. Approximately 1.1cm long.
