    Weird Sea Urchin

    Hello, I have this weird Seaurchin in my collection, and i couldnt identify it. But it looks a bit like a Cyclaster to me. I found it some years ago on a beach in nothern Germany at the Baltic sea.
  3. I recently bought some Baltic amber and I was wondering if it is real . Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

    Baltic Amber Gnat ID

    Hello everyone, and I hope you're all well. I recently ordered a Baltic amber specimen from a reputable dealer. The seller sent me this HD photograph of the inclusions, which are fungus gnats or Mycetophilidae. The largest gnat is about 6 mm long. The amber is Eocene in age, and was collected in Kaliningrad, Russia. Does anyone know the genus or species? Thanks for the help!
  5. Hello Fossil Maniacs ! Long time i didn't shared nothing from my amber cave, so this time i'd like to show something special. I am lucky that i had this alien-fly 3 times in my life. They are extremely rare for Baltic ambers. Diopsidae. Stalk-Eyed Fly. Body with head ~ 4mm. Baltic amber from Poland. I found it in raw amber material, pretty amazing feeling to see something like this as first person after that +- 50 million years Cheers from the cave of amber. Artur

    Trying to identify

    I bought some Baltic Amber online, company states it is from Lithuania. The pieces are chips, average size is 1/2 inch. I was looking at them through my microscope and discovered this. The microscope is at 10x magnification, picture was taken with a Samsung phone at 3x magnification.

    Baltic Sea Teeth

    Hello all, I just found these two things on a beach of the Baltic Sea in Latvia. The bigger one could fool me because the black part is very much like wood, however the bottom part (the gum?) has an interesting texture. Also, I don’t know how to describe it but the bottom part feels almost sort of fresh, like it’s not very old…. While it’s hard and solid it still looks wet unlike other fossils I have held. Sounds silly but maybe it helps identifying it. Although the smaller one is very similar, I almost have no doubt that it’s a tooth or claw. From what I could find on the internet, my best guess would be sperm whale tooth? Please tell me what you think. Thanks!
  8. Good evening fossil maniacs. I'd like to share a pictures that i made for one of my friend from Danmark. My hands was shaking when i making grindings and polishing of this specimen. Unfortunately specimen is not from my collection but for sure is worth for sharing. Extremely Rare Praying Mantis Nymph in superb condition and amazing position with well seen predatorial legs.

  9. Hi everyone! I have just returned from a fieldschool to Poland which was organized by the BVP (Belgium Society for Paleontology) in association with the Universities of Opole and Gdansk. The fieldschool started on the 9th july and ended on july 17. The first 2-3 days of the trip took place in the historic city of Gdansk which lies by the Baltic Sea where the main focus was on Baltic Amber. This included lectures, workshops, a small museum tour and some trips to the beach in search for amber. For the 2nd part of the trip we travelled to the south towards Opole and more specifically the Jurapark and digsite in Krasiejow where we had multiple lectures, workshops, and fieldwork in both Krasiejow and other quarries in the area. So in this topic I wanted to make a day by day report on this amazing trip and experience. Since we travelled by car I only returned yesterday evening so most of the finds still have to be photographed/prepped so expect them somewhere at the end of this topic (which might also take a few days to complete.)
  10. The last (for now) addition to my fossil collection consists of three amber pieces from Baltic and East Europe. They're dated to Eocene.
  11. Hello everyone, I would like to know what this Fossil might be. I thought it looked a bit similar to a whale hearing bone, but not as much that I could be certain. The Fossil was found in the north of Germany, near the Baltic sea. Please let me know if you have any ideas. Thank you very much in advance. Greetings Lukas

    Swedish echinoid

    Hi guys, I have this strange echinoid from sweden,, but the provenance might be off thanks for your help
  13. Hello my dear friends, Well I wanted to show off a recent article with my findings described by professionals. Soon, I will officially have 21 insects with my name/name/ invented name that I have found for science. Of course there were more but patronymic is not always possible. This time one of the beetles was described with the maiden name of my mother and our family. Stagetus szydlowskae. "Etymology. Patronymic, dedicated to mother and the family from the mother's side of Artur Michalski - Anna Michalska (Anna Szydlowska)." Article - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/360066119_Three_new_Ptinidae_Coleoptera_Bostrichoidea_from_Eocene_Baltic_amber Enjoy ! Artur M.

    Amber inclusions

    Hi, I received a few amber inclusions from a friend - unfortunately the seller did not provide any ID of the specimens. She did however provide a few photos - maybe someone will be able to identify the creatures / stuff trapped in amber. Specimen 1 Specimen 2 Specimen 3 Specimen 4 Regards, Kasia

  16. Hello Friends. This time i'd like to show one of my fav. ants from Baltic Ambers. Definitely not common ant. Gesomyrmex in great condition. 5mm body. better quality pic -----> https://ibb.co/gMkyFX2 head closeup ---------> https://ibb.co/SrgPnZ2 Enjoy and greetings from the amber cave in Poland Artur
  17. I found this piece while looking through a kilo of Amber and it's a bit different to the usual - there is something distinctly fibrous inside. Usually its the internal patterns of the Amber but this isn't. Unfortunately, its super hard to photograph. I think its probably something like mold or pollen, although I can't see any distinct seed pods etc - going to clean it up a little more tomorrow. I'd appreciate any input. Thanks, John

    Limestone jaw? Footprint?

    I was recently going through my "raw" fossils I took home from beach in Gdynia Orłowo and I found what reminds me of a jawin limestone. What really is it?
