kgbudge Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 A fossil buddy sent me these photos. His thought was trace fossils, but looking more closely, it seems to me these might be graptolites. I confess I've mostly hunted in beds well past the geological peak of graptolites and are not as familiar as I might like. My Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 They don't look like graptolites to me at this distance. Any chance of getting some closeups of them? Any info on the stratigraphy and location? Looks like these rocks have been brought in from elsewhere to support the slope. 1 Greetings from the Lake of Constance.

kgbudge Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 Will see if I can get better information on stratigraphy and a closer look from my friend. 1 My Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPS Ammonite Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Phylloid algae is a possibility especially if Pennsylvanian rocks are in the area. http://www.lakeneosho.org/King1Pic157-Tech.html 1 My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned.

kgbudge Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 Thanks much. Yes, the resemblance is close, and the area may well be Pennsylvanian. My Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
