Carboniferous Arthropleura, plants, insect wing...!
oscarinelpiedras posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
That day was so exciting, because I found a really nice specimen of Mixoneura wagneri fern, a specie that isn't very commoon in the area. And the color is... I had the luck of found some Arthropleura armored pieces too (I have to clean and glue them) and a small part of a cockroach wing. Terrestrial fauna are very rare in Spain... I found It on a restored coal mine from upper Carboniferous, Stephanien B of NW Spain.- 6 replies

Found this in Alaska along the Anchor River. Unsure if it is a fossilized anything? Almost looks like there are wing impressions on both sides of the narrow segments, which is about an inch long.

Sumatra Blue Amber (Sinamar Fm., ~30 Ma)
Barrelcactusaddict posted a gallery image in Member Collections
From the album: Fossil Amber and Copal: Worldwide Localities
4.3g dark, transparent blue amber from West Sumatra. This inclusion is most likely a winged ant of the Pseudomyrmex genus, although it may possibly be a wasp. A positive identification of both winged subjects is challenging, due to their deteriorated state and their position within the piece.© Kaegen Lau

This was found on top of a hill in Big Sky, MT. It is approximately 3x4 inches and the raised portion on top measures at most 1/4 inches. Not sure what to think of this since I usually find shallow ocean fossils. I've asked for opinions from friends and they see wings and a fossil of something with appendages. Personally, anything I find to post has been hard to confirm without an experts eye. I am getting better but would love a fresh opinion.

Hey folks, just picked this up after lunch. This is the first I've seen anything like this in the garden shale. Does it look like the wings from a trilobite ? It is shown exactly as it split. Is there a way to prepare this ? Thanks !

Hi all. We found this on the rocky Pacific Ocean beaches about 50 miles south of Mendocino, CA. To my untrained eye it looks like a winged insect or perhaps scales. Or am I seeing what I want to see? The photos give dimension and one shot is 7X macro. Any thoughts or comments are always greatly appreciated!

Just wondering if someone could help ID this fossil. It is part of a large stone (10 pounds) with many of these on the stone.
