Guest Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) My wife and I "hunted" at a few locations in Ohio today. We found a few enrolled flexis but are both wondering if anyone could ID these three fossils? We are still fairly new to rock hounding and appreciate any help. The first three photos are of a fossil I found at a road cut on US RT 42 near Waynesville, Ohio (near Cincinnati). The fourth photo is of a fossil I found at Caesars Creek spillway The fossil in the fifth picture was found at the same roadcut in Waynesville.

Crinoid Queen Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 (edited) The 5th picture is a brachiopod that has crystals growing in it. Those are always cool! The first one I cannot tell. The pictures are a little too fuzzy Try taking them outside in the sun or under some brighter light. Also any information of the geologic age you are hunting or location also is helpful. -CQ (P.S. I didnt notice that 4th and 5th were different fossils oops) Edited June 3, 2013 by Crinoid Queen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 4th pic on the right looks like a partial trilobite hypostome. Possibly Isotelus? Neat finds.
