cngodles Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 Two mystery mini fossils. I’ll include scale photos, with marks at 1/2 mm. I’m on the lookout for Carboniferous Trilobites, and examples I’ve seen are very tiny in this formation, no more than 1/2 inch long.

cngodles Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 Scale marks (1/2 mm). I’m curious about the small oval on the bottom of the very first image that contains several small bumps/dots.

ynot Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Trilobite bits. Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

Missourian Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 The second specimen is an ostracod. 1 Context is critical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
