JamieLynn Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Finally getting around to posting some of my New York Devonian Penn Dixie matrix finds! So much neat crinoid stuff, the occasional trilo bit and some other goodies! Someday, I hope to visit and maybe find some "Big" stuff! The CRINOIDS.....so many amazing shapes. I love Crinoid Geometry: (all are around 2-5 mm) The Trilo Bits: (2-5mm) probably Eldredgeops A friend was trying to type in Pygidium and it auto corrected to Pudgy Idiom.....so yeah. That's what they are now. Plus this nice sized one (5mm) in situ with a crinoid! Gastropods Naticonema lineata Size 5 mm Platyceras size 3 mm also maybe Platyceras? 2mm And some other neat things: Tentaculites Size 7mm Coral Amplexiphylum hamiltoniae Size 2 cm and Bryozoan Reptaria Size 3mm which I think this is also? 5 mm 10 www.fossil-quest.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilDAWG Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Micros are so much fun! I think your "Spyroceras" is actually a Tentaculites. Superficially similar but a very different sort of an animal. Don 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I agree with Don - Tentaculites.

Tidgy's Dad Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I also think that's Tentaculites. What lovely pictures, I adore some of those crinoid columnals. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam86cucv Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Nice photography. The variety and geometry of the crinoids is amazing. They maybe under appreciated fossils but they are just so neat to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Lovely little things! And another great thing about them is that they don't take up very much space 1 Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
