Nautiloid Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I know this trip happened a while ago, but I’ve been pretty busy as of late finishing up the school year and such and haven’t had a chance to make a trip report. Hopefully y’all find this interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current name combination is: Dalmanites pleuroptyx According to Lespérance & Bourque: D. pleuroptyx is excluded from the Synphoriinae because it lacks fused 2P and 3P lateral glabellar lobes.

Trevor Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Nice finds! Thank you for including the scientific names, I appreciate that. My favorite fossil among this assortment is the Discomyorthis oblata. How common is this fossil in your area? 1 : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks and Discomyorthis oblata are one of the more common brachiopods at this site, but they are often found as single valves. Most of the time they are broken due to how thin they are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peat Burns Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Nice finds. It looks like that Actinopteria could be glued back together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And unfortunately, I lost a couple of the pieces to that bivalve, so it won’t fit together. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
