Franz, congrats on the publication and the field work that went into it.  I didn't understand the text, but I loved the eye-candy, both the familiar and the new pictures.  I too loved the x-sectns.

Thanks for your appreciation! Yes, some are really nice and contrasting (but not well preserved), others don´t have much contrast, but are rather nicely preserved .

It really surprised me, how many fossils I still have found during these 25 hours from July to September 2019. I discovered all these sites myself in 2017 or 2018 and I have already heavily collected these four sites during that time. But the output/hour was still the same this year than the years before. And the sites are still not totally exploited.

At the moment I am quite saturated with fossils from this formation. But maybe, in a few months... .

Greetings!
