  1. I am fortunate enough to have such a huge amount of Middle Devonian Givetian material that I thought it best to put the older Middle Devonian stage, the Eifelian, in its own thread. There are some spectacular fossils here as well though! I thought a good place to start would be in the Formosa Reef, which I believe is quite early Eifelian. This tabulate coral and stromatoporoid reef continues similar complexes found from the Middle Silurian, see my: https://www.thefossilforum.com/topic/84678-adams-silurian/page/3/ thread from page three onwards for details. All these Formosa Reef specimens come from a delightful gift from my good friend @Monica who is a tad busy with life at the moment but is fine and still thinking of the forum. This outcrop can be found on Route 12 near Formosa/Amherstburg, Bruce County, Ontario, Canada. This beautiful-looking specimen came to me with only a third of it revealed but I managed to get it this far after nine days of painful pin prepping. Monica found another one and posted it for ID here: https://www.thefossilforum.com/topic/105528-weird-circular-imprints-formosa-reef-lower-devonian/#comment-1172285 The specimen was identified by another Canny Canadian @Kane to be the little stromatoporoid sponge Syringostroma cylindricum. Hardly a reef-builder, but gorgeous nonetheless. It does have a little thickness to it, but not much. Beautiful! Pretty thin, actually. I love this Monica, thank you!

    ADAM'S SILURIAN

    Hoooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here we are at last, into Adam's Silurian. Thanks for looking. First up is the Lower Silurian or Llandovery and I begin with a problem. I posted this one incorrectly in Adam's Ordovician as it had got it's label muddled up with an Ordovician Favosites I had that has vanished in the move here, but is being replaced by kind forum member @Herb Anyway, this, I remember now I've found the correct label, is from the greenish Browgill Formation, part of the Stockdale Group from a cutting near Skelgill (Skelghyll) in Cumbria, Northern England. It seems to be a tabulate coral, but I can't find any listed for this location, only mentions of small, rare, rugose corals. It has the star shaped corallites of a Heliolitidid, but seems to be tightly packed together like a Favositidid. A couple of species of Palaeofavosites seem to be close and are a bit star-shaped,, but anyone know any better? @TqB@piranha hmm who else? The coral bit, an external mold, is a maximum of 3.5 cm across and each corallite up to 2 mm.
  3. I'm a mineral collector rather than a fossil collector, but this gastropod replaced by chalcedony has one foot in each camp. It was labeled (by a mineral dealer) "Turritela fossil snail" with a locality given only as Morocco. It'd like to come a little closer taxonomically if I can. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Edit: Forgot to include its dimensions: 24 mm tall x 15 mm diameter

    Gastropod help ID

    This was found in the Carboniferous limestone of the Malahide formation , east coast Dublin Ireland,

    Conus

    From the album: Miocene fossils from Qatar

    A calcite replaced miocene conus fossil I found. The rock itself was collected early last year but I cracked it open to look for echinoids. The calcite is paper thin and very fragile, and the inside of it is also filled with numerous crystals. Dam formation Abu samra member
  6. I don’t have too many tylostoma gastropods, but I found a few yesterday that include the biggest one I’ve found in one piece. Small hemiaster and heteraster echinoids galore as well. The big Tylostoma will replace one of my current “keepers” in my collection. Tarrant county, TX near downtown Fort Worth. The others are anchura(?)

    Carboniferous gastropod?

    Howdy all, Was taking a walk around EP. Tom Sawyer here in Louisville, and I found this little fossilized gastropod in a creek bed. I had originally thought that it was of the Silurian, but then I found some coal right next to it, which makes me think this may be Carboniferous. A species ID would also be helpful.
  8. Does anyone recognise this tiny silicified shell? It's about 2mm long. I haven't seen one like it before from the Carboniferous. From the Great Limestone (upper Mississippian, Pendleian Stage) from Weardale, Co. Durham, England. From a piece I've been dissolving in acid, containing silicified brachiopods, gastropods etc. It starts off with an open helical spiral (3rd photo) and then straightens out. It also has clear annular ribs. Although the preservation is imperfect and sugary, I'm sure it's shell replacement rather than internal mould, judging from other fossils in the pece. The various serpulid-like gastropods and microconchids I've come across elsewhere don't have the regular ribbing.
