PaleoNoel Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Hi everyone, I know I haven't posted any fossils in the ID section for a while, but one recent post caught my eye. I immediately recognized a fossil on that post to be similar, if not the same as one I found in the Peace River in Florida back in the February of 2018. I now believe it's the imbricating band of some type of armadillo (likely Dasypus). It's about 2 cm long by .6 cm wide. I'd be happy to hear your input! Here's my specimen Here's some images provided by @Harry Pristis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digit Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 Yup. I concur. Beautiful color on that one--did it come out of the river? Cheers. -Ken 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only had one fossil hunting trip in Florida and it was at the Peace River (although I really do want to get back down there in the next few years to check out some other areas).
