Ludwigia Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The second and fourth photos show very little detail since it's too bright, but they appear to be pieces of shell. From what I couldn't say. Photos 3 and 5 show part of what may have once been a gastropod (snail). I think that the object in matrix in the last photo is rather a gastropod than an ammonite. Can you say anything to the stratigraphy? Jurassic? Cretaceous? Cenozoic? Greetings from the Lake of Constance.

Miocene_Mason Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Miocene has no ammonites, they died out in the K-T extinction. It is a gastropod. I can't see the other ones the best, try using natural light, it works better. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miocene_Mason Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Hmmmm the spheroidal one looks a bit like a lobster carapace but could just be a crushed mollusk. “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossildude19 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 I've cropped and edited some of your photos. I believe you have bivalves and a gastropod. I can see growth lines on the curved/oblong items.

Ludwigia Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 The one on the right in matrix in the 2nd to last photo is a bivalve. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
