Kurufossils Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Hello, this trilobite was found in rock from somewhere upstate new york. It was an interesting shape different from what I have found before but it is very worn to tell exactly what it is to my knowledge, is it to broken up to id? If not I'll let the new york trilobite experts here take this one. The trilo measures a little over an inch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilDAWG Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Is any locality info available? "Upstate New York" could be Cambrian, Ordovician, Silurian, or Devonian. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurufossils Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 @FossilDAWG I think devonian but it was unnaturally placed where I found this so I am unsure exactly which period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 What county in NY was it found? That would help to narrow down the possibilites.

Kurufossils Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 @Fossildude19 It's tough to know as these rock were brought in from upstate to where I live nyc after hurricane sandy, I haven't been able to trace which quarry or area, I have posts with other finds from there but I am unable to tell unfortunately.
