Carson01 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 SO I went fossil hunting the other day just for plants in Stillwater. I manage to to find two fossils one I'm pretty sure is a plant and the other I have no idea. I thought it was a shed insect exoskeleton but I'm not sure. Can anyone help me with what these are?

Kane Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Looks to me like a praying mantis egg sac. I find them all over the place in one of my collecting spots in the springtime. 1 ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDAWG Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Also (in case it wasn't obvious) a modern preying mantis egg sac, not a fossil. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
