darrenrx Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Hi Fossil Forum, I went fossil hunting today by several creeks in the Middle Georgia area. I used to find shell fossils there when I was a teenager. Now that I'm older, I'm having fun searching the area and trying to identify fossils. The geological map identifies the area as Suwannee Limestone from the Oligocene period. There are also layers from the Eocene period in this same area. This is the first snail fossil I have ever found. Can you help me identify it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted November 29, 2015 Share Posted November 29, 2015 Although molds are difficult to diagnose and I'm also no great expert on Tertiary gastropods, I could still hazard a guess at Ampullina sp.
