Middle Devonian Finger Lakes trip, New York State

Recommended Posts

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.

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.
