Foram and Mollusk fossil ID Oldsmar formation Florida

Recommended Posts

Afternoon,

Was looking through some drill cuttings from the Oldsmar formation ~2600 feet bls and am wondering if the majority of these are similar to Ranikothalia from looking through some papers from Yucatan. These are all Eocene in age; any help would be appreciated and I will add more images as we bring in more cuttings. The more spherical images are from higher up around ~2100 in the glauconite layer. Sorry for low quality it's a cheap microscope.

Thanks,

Ekker
