craigmontgomery Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) Fossil hunting in Long Creek Hood County Texas, found these (all the same shape) fossils. Are they a pelecypod, oyster, gryphaea? Any suggestions appreciated! It almost looks like a weathered bi-valve. See the last pic I posted.

JamieLynn Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 I"m thinking Rudists on these. 2 www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 The last photo definitely shows an Exogyra type bivalve from the family Gryphaeidae, a group of oysters. 2 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erose Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 1 hour ago, JamieLynn said: I"m thinking Rudists on these. Me too. The thin remnants of shell suggest rudist versus gastropod. Probably in the family Requienidae. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
