pefty Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) This Missourian is headed out to the Late Devonian of western New York state and Pennsylvania this coming week and hoping for a little help from y'all on localities for eurypterids and the sponge Hydnoceras. Are Clarke's (1920) Hydnoceras localities at Brown Hill (near Cohocton, NY) and Irish Hill (near Bath, NY) still productive and accessible? Are Ehlers' (1935) eurypterid localities at Bush Hill (near Smethport, PA)? Or are there other spots I should be checking out? I understand that the Trimmers Rock Formation in the vicinity of Bloomsburg, PA, is also worth a look for eurypterids, but I don't have any pinpoints mapped. If you're local to the area and want to show me the way yourself, I'll gladly bring you some Missouri crinoids Thanks in advance . . .

minnbuckeye Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Sorry I can't offer suggestions. But I have a question. Is your avatar a Ophiletina angularis gastropod from the Platteville? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erin Presley Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 I am from the Bath/Hammondsport area. I am not sure of fossils but be careful as eastern rattlesnakes have become more prevalent and black bears also. Any place south of Bath, including Mossy Bank Park, has rattle dens. Just an fyi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
