Gastropoda (Ukraine) ?


Kolya

Recommended Posts

Hello!
I found them in Western Ukraine.
Help, please, with identification.
Are they Gastropoda moluscs? Which type of replacement it is? And from which period it could be (I found fossils in this place from Neogene and Cretaceus)?
Thanks in advance!!!

From the picture provided they look like steinkerns and it would be hard to make a better ID beyond gastropod.

Better pictures nay make a difference.

As for the age, look for a geologic map of the area You found them.

Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

The one on the far right looks more like a mold fossil. I'm not sure what it is, but if I'm correct the texture of what I see as matrix would tend to confirm that the gastropods are steinkerns.
