Awesome finds!

How do you tell the two goniatites apart?

Thanks!

 

I can tell by their size. Agoniatites are way larger than Tornoceras.

Nice nautiloids, Nautiloid! :P

 

I'm curious as to where they are from... Nevermind I just read the tags... :DOH:

Spyroceras is probably my favourite orthoconic nautiloid genus - thanks for the eye candy :)

I'm pretty sure at least the second Michelinoceras is a Bactrites, because of the fracture line running down the middle, as well as the texture.
