DrDave Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I went to visit my family south of Rochester, NY a couple of weeks ago. They own property which includes a creek emptying into Canandaigua Lake. Here are some pics and finds. There are public sites very close with similar fauna, including Green's Landing, and Barnes' Gully/Onanda Park. Eldredgeops Rana strophomenid Amboecoelia umbonata strophemenid brachiopod (not concava--its a flat one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDave Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Pyritized orthocone, about 15 cm long --->base of orthocone. Very frangible. Internal fossil is pure granular pyrite; if I try to prep this, I'm sure nothing will be left. This fossil is photo-op only! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrDave Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 Lots of partial eldregeops rana trilobites mixed in with mediospirifer sp's. Some Eldgreops parts indicated the individuals were decently sized, up to 2.5-3 cm transverse by 5 cm in length, I estimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
