That is quite the collection! How long did it take you to collect this many?

I like the bivalves as well.

Wow! Where do the ammonites come from? Are they eroding out of the decomposed rock?

@herve Thanks for sharing this. It's nice for me to be able to view the fauna from this particular zone. In southern Germany they are only available in concretions from a reworked bank in the transversarium zone, which is mostly only rarely exposed through construction activities or on a few plowed fields. I've never had the chance to collect them myself. Can you remove them directly from outcrops or do you find the concretions already weathered out of the exposures? Would it be possible to show us more single ammonites with their names?

 

Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger

This reminds me of a site I go to a lot. A lot of new stuff erodes out after a good rain.

Never stops producing.
