Scalariform (?) Gastropod (?) - Cretaceous Gosau-Group of Kainach, Styria, Austria
FranzBernhard posted a topic in Fossil ID
Hello, what do you thing about this fragmentary specimen? Its from the Upper Cretaceous Afling-Formation of the Gosau-Group of Kainach, Eastern Alps. It was found in an about 1 m thick conglomerate bed with Trochactaeon and hippuritid rudists. It consists of about 1 1/4 whorls, the whorls do not touch, hence "scalariform"(?). The upper "end" of the "tube" has an outer diameter of about 9.5 mm, the lower "end" an outer diameter of about 12 mm. The outer surface appears the be smooth, the shell is about 1 mm thick. Sorry, these are the best pics possible. Here is a link to a pic showing a part of the outcrop in October 2021: Outcrop Reinprechtskogel-63 Many thanks! Franz Bernhard- 19 replies

This is by far our best Johnlongia tooth from Cretaceous material from NW Queensland which we found today 11/7/21while sorting through fish mash material. Currently this species from the Richmond has not been named however this is work been done at the moment to name more of the Richmond shark teeth, this is a rare tooth from the area.

Not really (the title). @Ash and I are currently staying at a lovely cabin furbished to look like an early settler's homestead while we are on holidays looking for fossilized crabs from the Cretaceous. We got here at 2:30 p.m. yesterday after a 12 hr drive from waking at 2:30 a.m. and leaving at 3:15 a.m. After settling in and having roast beef sandwhiches for a late lunch, we spent 3 hrs in the evening looking and managed to find four confirmed Torynomma quadrata crabs and brought back a few concretions to split for later. We also might have found a nautilus of sorts? Unsure of the correct term. We snacked on crackers with meats and cheeses for 'dinner'. This morning, Ash made us maple-glazed bacon, eggs, and toast for brekkie. We then looked for another couple hours, managing to find only one more crab (Tory again) and some ammonites (heteromorphs). Came back and had another roast beef sandwhich (toasted with swiss cheese and wholegrain mustard), had a swim in the pool, then took a rinse and had a cup of tea. We'll head back out for another few hrs here soon, have dinner (pot roast), then possibly a soak in the outdoor bathtubs (????). Then repeat tomorrow before heading back home Will update as we can-wish us luck!

I am hoping someone can provide some some guidance. The surface of this bone is covered with knobby protuberances. My inclination is fish but the bone cell structure is not fish flaky but more reptilian. Found in Alabama, Cretaceous chalk.

Over the past 2 to 2 1/2 years I have been assembling this collection of Cretaceous set. I was directly inspired by TFF user Andy, who made a set of the apex predators of the Cretaceous seas and waterways with many of the same species featured in this collection. I would like to give credit to him for this collection idea. Obviously I couldn't travel to Niger, Morocco, or even Kansas, travel is expensive and time is limited. I will plan to go to Kansas one day as my dream location, but for now, Ohio will do. While this isn't complete, I added fossils from some of my favorite prehistoric creatures. As a fossil hunter/collector, I find that marine reptile and fish teeth interest me the most. The species are as follows; Onchopristus numidus Tegana formation, Kem Kem Beds, Taouz, Morocco. acquired in the summer of 2016. This is the only piece of mine that has any repairs. In the future I'll search for one without repairs.
