Brad1978 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 I found this sea urchin recently and figured I would share it with the forum. Not sure if it's a newly discovered species but it's a pretty nice piece. It looks like it got partly smashed somehow before petrification. It was found just outside the city limits of Uvalde, Tx near a slough that runs into the Leona River. So far I only have one picture to post but I will get a shot of the underside when I find the right lighting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadrosauridae Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 This one has been exposed and worn down by the water for quite a while. While its not a great specimen, it does show you what is in your area and that if you keep looking, you are going to find better ones, and likely many different types.
