18 Mile Creek Fossils- Western New York

[Nimravis]

Today I was rearranging fossils in my basement and I came across some fossils that I had purchased in 2019 at a garage sale for $2.00. The pieces are from 18 Mile Creek in Western New York. These fossils are Middle Devonian in age and the person that they belonged to collected them I believe in the 80’s or early 90’s.

 

Here are a few of the pieces. It is nice to have a representative group of some of the fossils from this location.

 

Hopefully I have the ID’s correct on these.

Here I think the one on the left might be Tropidoleptus carinatus

I believe the first one here is Ambocoelia sp. brachial valve

The other looks like the inarticulate brachiopod Orbiculoidea sp.

Spyroceras sp.

 

The Mucrospirifer and E. rana are correct I believe

I am not sure about the coral.

Also not familiar with the species of Greenops that are present there, @Kane might know.

 

Very nice collection with some beautiful fossils!

I only posted a couple pieces of what I have. At the garage sale that I bought these from, all flats were priced to sell and I bought a lot of things.
