Hi everyone this is Matt again. 

Today in the creek I found this fossil full of small snails.

Ooooh! That one is cool, Matt!  :envy:

 

I count 5 readily visible, with 3 or 4 more possible ones! 

Very neat!

They look like maybe Paleozygopleura sp.

Nice find, Matt! I’ve always liked those high spire type gastropods. :wub:
