  1. Samurai

    Another Broken Paraconularia sp.

    From the album: Missouri Conulariids

    Another broken specimen weathered from the rock. I always find these jellyfish fascinating whenever they present themselves.
  2. Samurai

    Broken Paraconularia sp.

    From the album: Missouri Conulariids

    A lot of my conulariid finds tend to be broken at or near the tip of the apex, even before the attachment which is typical of other conulariid specimens. I am not sure if it is a plane of weakness, a common feature when the animal dies, or simple predation, but when I collected this specimen from the Paola limestone the lower half was missing from the rest of the slab, despite being an almost clean fracture.
  3. Location: Missouri Period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Iola Limestone (Muncie Creek Shale Member?) Hello once again and I have come up with an interesting find. I recently came across my 7th Conulariid while fossil hunting and decided it was time to do a deep dive on Google. I came across some information that Conulariids can have pearls, which If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't have believed it. I decided to look at that specific specimen more closely and to my surprise I may have found one of these Conu-Pearls. Here is an image from the paper: Babcock, L.E. (1990). Conulariid Pearls. pp. 68-71 IN: Evolutionary Paleobiology of Behavior and Coevolution. Elsevier Scientific Publishing, 725 pp. My Specimen: I have long suspected that my Conularrids were a part of the Genus Paraconularia but never nailed down the species. If anyone can confirm please let me know. The paper mentions that these pearls are made out of Calcium Phosphate and my specimen's possible "pearl(s)" are consistent with the color, shine, and appearance of the Chitin-Calcium-Phosphate shells of brachiopods I have found around the area and other localities. I think the pearl's color is distinct enough from the Conulariids exoskeleton, but I may be wrong. As these pearls form in layers, I assume the fragment on the image's left side to be the pearl's outer ring that somehow detached from the actual main pearl (on the right side). Ultimately I would like to hear other people's opinions as I don't want to be a "Conu-Liar". Also here is the size of the Conulariid along with another, albeit Crushed specimen. I, unfortunately, do not have the rest of my Conulariids on me as I was back in the area for spring break and left my main collection at my apartment. I will be able to look at the rest of the Conulariids next week, and under a lower-power microscope instead of a hand lens. Edit: I forgot to add an image of the "Pearl" on its side.

    Prep Conulariid

    How should I prep this 6 cm wide crushed conulariid that is covered in a massive bryozoan and is from the Pennsylvanian Naco Formation of Arizona? It is only the second one that I have found. The matrix is a shaley limestone and is full of bedding cracks. Flakes are falling off either side of the fossil. I would like to take most of the matrix off the back side by hammer and chisel along a bedding plane 1-2 inches below. I can make any thickness of Butvar B-76 solution in acetone. I am afraid that covering the conulariid with Butvar might not hold it together if I try to split the rock and inch or so below the fossil.
  5. SilurianSalamander

    Conulariid or nothing?

    Found in Paleozoic gravel alongside crinoids, corals, and gastropods. Sorry if this is just wishful thinking! Thanks. The rock is about an inch tall
  6. Nautiloid

    Utica Shale conulariid

    From the album: Ordovician non-trilobite fossils

    This is a relatively small (~1 cm) conulariid from the Upper Ordovician Utica Shale of New York. It’s sorta weathered, but you can still make out some of the structure, especially under a more powerful lens.

    Conulariid?

    Is this a conulariid? Found this weird imprint in the same rock as some brachiopods. Found armored fish bone, crinoids, corals, and bryozoans.
  8. This was found in the Pennsylvanian LaSalle Limestone of Illinois. My best guess is that the "top" specimen is a fragment of a conulariid, and that the "bottom" specimen is a fragment of an inarticulate brachiopod. But as I have never found any trace of a conulariid at this site, I was hoping to get a second opinion. It measures about 0.75cm at the widest dimension. Inarticulate brachiopod? Close ups of the "conulariid"

    Middle Devonian Conulariid

    Hello again. Today I have what may be a conulariid from the Lost River. General consensus on my Instagram was that this was a conulariid, but I’m wondering if anyone here has anything else they might be able to tell me about this thing it’s exactly one inch across, and the small circle on it is a little Brachiopod I hope the pictures are good enough - let me know if i need to post something else. ‘Also for future reference, should I do individual IDs or do them all on one big thread? Thanks!

    Any information on conulariids?

    Hello everyone! I’m looking for any information on conulariids while showing the one I found! I found this specimen in west Michigan while fossil hunting recently. I used my microscope to get very zoomed in details of the ridges as this conulariid is very well preserved. The two very close up pictures are a 1000X while the last picture that isn’t as zoomed in is 50X, both are the same spot of the specimen. I know that these are thought to be some type of jellyfish/coral but that’s all I know of these fossils. Any more information would be really awesome, and I hope that you enjoy this find!
  11. From the album: Lower Devonian Helderberg Group in Eastern NY

    Conularia huntiana from the Kalkberg formation.
  12. Peto Lithos

    Conulariid

    I found this conulariid in a stormbed of the Utica Shale. I am not very familiar with conulariids, and was wondering if a more specific ID was possible. Unfortunately because of how the rock broke I was unable to recover the rest of the fossil.
