John S. Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Took a quick trip with my wife to a few spots in NE TX including the North Sulphur River. Found a nice variety with my fav being the mosasaur/fish coprolite.

ynot Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Nice finds! Did You collect the clam in the first picture, or just the tool? Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

DPS Ammonite Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The clam in the top photo, Corbicula fluminea, is modern Asian immigrant. They are common in lakes and canals in Texas, Arizona and other areas. See Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corbicula_fluminea My goal is to leave no stone or fossil unturned. See my Arizona Paleontology Guide link The best single resource for Arizona paleontology anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
