ducttapefreak324 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I found this fossil on the rail road tracks by my house. I live in York County, PA, but I'm not sure which quarry the rail road company gets their stone from. This fossil is the only one I've found like it, mostly I just find brachiopods. I've been searching for a while for an ID, and someone on my facebook group suggested this forum. Any suggestions would ne greatly appreciated!

Fossildude19 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Welcome to the Forum. You are looking at a cross section through a crinoid stem. I see other crinoid columnals. (round things) Neat find. Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Miocene_Mason Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Welcome to the forum from not too far south of you! I agree with crinoid cross sections. “...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...
