Hello all!

 

I found a glacier transported fossil in unusually good condition in Southern New Jersey so I was wondering if anyone could get specific on it as to species and genus. Obviously, it was found severely out of its original formation so I'm not sure we can get any detail on this but I figured I'd try!

And, if this CAN be specifically identified; would anyone happen to know where they may be a common find in New York or Pennsylvania? Thanks!

Anyone have an idea? The reason I'm really trying on this one is because if we can get a specific ID, we might be able to narrow down where it came from (before the glacier). 

 

Most of the glacier erratics are so worn that there is no chance of doing so.
