Malibu Creek Canyon Narrows - Oyster Bed and Shell Fossils - Southern California
ezeemonee posted a topic in Member Collections
Some examples of fossils found in the cliffs and boulders of Malibu Creek Canyon Narrows. Oyster Bed and Moon Snail and Turritella Shell Fossils. The species guess for the Oysters based on research is Ostrea (Pycnodonte) Howelli, but I am not sure. Probably Eocene period fossils. Maybe Miocene. Nice area of Malibu creek in the Santa Monica Mountains but difficult to access.-

Hello everyone, my name is Lori and i am from Malibu, California. I have lived in Malibu off and on for 40 plus years.I have always been into collecting things. From antiques to Indian artifacts & fossils. I love to go to the beach at low tide or hiking in the Santa Monica Mountains. I have been taking some college classes because i would like to learn more about what i find. I am new to this fossil forum and would like to post some pictures of what i believe to be fossils in the hope of getting feedback. Thank you.
