I've had these few pieces in one of my drawers for years and I got looking at them again today. Three of them are clearly some form of Fusulinid or other Foram, the other I think is oolite. I don't remember where I got them but suffice it to say I didn't collect them myself. I guess I don't expect much info to come in about these, but in the off-chance that anyone recognizes the material I'd appreciate knowing about it. They each seem to be quite distinctive so there is hope. The only Fusulinid I know of in B.C. is Yabeina from the Cache Creek area (Marble Canyon), which I've read about in books about BC geology, but I've never collected at that spot so I wouldn't know how to recognize it, if any of my pieces are from there. Otherwise my best guess is they're from somewhere in the US where these things are more readily available.

Molluscs and other fossils in spongiolite erratics of Lithuania. The age is needed to know
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Dear Guys, When I was in Varena town I was doing research of one erratic kind- grey and greenish spongiolites and collected many mollusc, foraminiferan and also brachiopod, vertebrate remains. I probably found Diovarilima, Barbatia, Ciliatocardium and other bivalves, cerithimorph Tarebia, brachiopods like Terebratulina, sawshark and fish remains. If anyone is able to identify these fossils, it would be very helpful. I would like to know the age of rock pieces and from The first impression I guess these erratics belong to Miocene or something similar. There were shallow marine conditions I think. Any help will be appreciated! Kind Regards Domas Picture 1. Anadara? bivalve- 34 replies
