This summer a friend brought me this rock from the town of Pomer (Zaragoza). The age of the rocks in the area is Cambrian and I think it could be some kind of arthropod, I don't know... It was found at an altitude of 1300m. Can someone help me?

I was on a walk and this rock had broken away from the bluff and was on the trail. Does anyone know what the fossil is?

I found this along AA Highway. These where at every stop I made during my 4 hour hunt. Most were on rocks too heavy for me to lift. I did have a nice one that was a full specimen, but I lost it when I fell from the second teir of the roadcut (shouldn't have been climbing in the rain ha ha). So I tried to draw out what can't be seen in the only specimen I have. I looked through my fossil books and the closest thing I can find is maybe these are parts of cryptolithus. I wish I could have gotten more. This one is about 2.5cm long and I saw some that were slightly larger and slightly smaller.

Again, here is another invertebrate I have not been able to identify. Either way, my original guess was a trilobite pygidium, until I reviewed the fossil under different lighting, and then saw that it matched no known trilobites from this formation. So I am at a loss here. It is Pridoli, Silurian. For anyone who is interested, this came from a recent excursion to the Leighton Formation. It was found in a layer that contained only Chonetes bastini brachiopods and a few ostracods - with some possible fish bits. In the pictures below, the fossil is shown under a combination of different lightings, to show the surface texture of the specimen. The first three pictures show the cast/original of the specimen, the last two show the external mold of it. The first picture is to show what the entire thing looks like. I am pretty certain that the round piece at the top right of the picture is part of the same specimen, but I cannot be sure. Thanks in advance for your help everyone!

Hello all! I’ve been going through some of my fossils from the New Scotland Formation and I stumbled upon this intriguing little piece. It’s about a centimeter wide and seems to be separated in the middle, almost like two connected plates of some kind. I’ve got a decent collection from this formation and I’ve never seen anything like this. Hopefully somebody on here can help me out. Thanks for looking!!
