Hello to all. Please help me identify this branch. It was found on the banks of the Kremenchug reservoir in Ukraine. This is a large reservoir, which is adjacent to three regions. It is difficult to determine the age - water erodes the layers from the Neogene period to the Jurassic. Thank you!

While on vacation with my family we stopped by the Florissant Fossil Quarry in Cripple Creek, Colorado. Out of all the little leafs and branches we got this was probably the best one. I was wondering if it was possible to identify what kind of plant this leaf belongs to and what would be the best way to preserve it. Thanks ahead of time!

Found on Manitoulin Island. I believe at Kagawong... but unfortunately, it's been a while and I didn't make any notes at the time.

Hi, new to the forum here. I found this on the banks of a river today. I think it's a either an old tree branch or a bone? Not sure what it is. Any ideas? I live in western NY if that helps.

What are these fossils and how old are they ?
FossilizedGerman posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello! So I found these three fossils and was curious to know about them... one i think is to be a bryozoan branch the tooth i believe to be a cow tooth not sure how old it may be and the last one is a type of small brachiopod its super tiny but again I don't know much about fossils yet but I am ready to learn more ! So if any one knows anything about these fossils that'd be a great help! First 6 pictures are from the riverbed and the last two are from the beach in Lübeck,Germany Thanks!

Unusual Fern I can't seem to identify, along with another Fern Leaf ( Missouri )
Samurai posted a topic in Fossil ID
Location: Missouri Time period: Pennsylvanian Formation: Possibly Upper Winterset Limestone Hello! I happened to come across one odd fossil that I could not recognize Some close ups on the leaves The only thing I could certainly determine it is some sort of Fern but beyond that I am unfamiliar of what species it could belong to My next specimen is a Fern leaf of some sort but due to its poor preservation is hard for me to determine what it is from, any Ideas? -
Hi I found this rock on a rock bar in a river. Looks like a fossil. It looks similar to petrified wood. Is that what it is?

So this completes the wood pieces I have- a spectacular 25lb "branch"?. Carried it more than a mile from a creek bed. I use it as a doorstop/conversation piece. Also found in Kansas City. comments/observations welcome! Thanks! Bone

Good morning, I hope all is well with you and thank you for having a look at this post and the pictures I will be uploading. Obviously my hope is to figure out what this is. About 10 years ago I found this in the Eifel National Park here in Germany. I posted two pictures to give indication. It was found literally "in the woods." I was walking through the forest, rather far off from any path, and found this. In my opinion rather heavy for its sizes. It weighs about 6.5 Kg (about 14 pounds) I have always called it “the tree rock” and pick it up now and again, look at it, scratch my head and put it back on the landing where it sits and collects dust and dog hairs. The first six pictures are the perspectives. I numbered them 01 to 06. I guess the pictures give the description, but I feel inclined to comment on Picture no. five and six: No. 5: 1. this is the main reason I feel this may be a tree or some sort of wood fossil 2. It reminds me very much of an end of a rotted branch or tree stump. No. 6: 1. This side is noticeably different. 2. It is a bit blackened and rounded (convex if you will, but the radius is only in one direction as far as I can tell) 3 .The black does not rub off. 4. There are a few small holes that sort of remind me of escaping gas bubbles in a way. 5. ADD TO POST: This event got me riled up a bit.... While I was looking at the post I suddenly had the desire to hold a magnet on this side and the magnet holds, but only to this side where the black is!! I find that to be rather interesting to be honest. Assume that there is iron / Fe or something that contains that. The pictures after the first six are not sorted in any particular order, but to help with discussion or comments I lettered them. I also posted two pictures of the area where I found this. Basically in the Eifel National Park, which is near to Belgium and the Netherlands. Thank you in advance for your help and comments. :-) Have a good day because, who knows what tomorrow will bring?

again another plant fossil from the creek today
matthew textor posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
Hi everyone today again I found another plant fossil in the creek it use to be 2 feet long but I could not get it out in one piece because it seemed to fall apart when when I tried to remove it but I did get one piece out with good detail here are some photos

Hi we are newbies, went to Kemerer and found a lot of fish, and a slab with a tree branch (about a foot long 6 " wide). YOu can see patterns of the bark, but it is very faint. I am not sure if we should remove the covering and see if there is a darker layer under the stone? As it was a fairly larger specimen it may be more 3 dimensional. Any Suggestions? Any one have ideas? (On the fish I have heard 1:6 and 1:20 diluted wood glue is that correct?

Hi everyone this is Matthew again today in the creek I found this strange fossil I think it might be some kind of wood but I am not sure ? does anyone know what this is?

Hello all. I had recently made a post needing to repair a fossil of ferns (Lygenopteris hoeninghousi) and an unknown branch. It is now repaired and I wanted to get a proper ID on the branch specifically and see what you all think it is from. Do you believe it is also from Lygenopteris hoeninghousi? I think the preserved hair like spines along the branch are particularly interesting. It was found in a coal mine in Alabama and is in shale. Thank you all.

Ok, so we searched and searched today. We FINALLY found a roadside shale bank, saw a few ferns and Cordiates (I’m learning) So we pulled this piece, split it and got a beauty of a fern. Then.... this fell out. It looks like a bone?!?! But I’m fully prepared to accept it’s a branch. Let us know.....

From the album: Carbondale, PA
Calamities sp., a tree-like plant with hollow, woody stem that grew more than 100 ft high (30m). Found in a tailings pile in Carbondale, PA. -
I bought this specimen many years ago in a small museum in Austria. The fossil itself is a very fragile flat piece of coal, was collected locally and sold by the same paleontologist who works in the museum itself. I cleaned it by myself since it was not prepared and covered in soil fragments, the real shape of the fossil had remained hidden behind a black layer of dust. When purchasing, I was told that it probably was a bark fragment from Alethopteris, but looking at it now I have the heavy suspect that it is instead a small Lepidodendron branch (excluding all the surrounding undefined plant material). More detailed information: found on mount Königsstuhl in Nockalm, southern Austria dated 330 million years, Middle Mississippian, Carboniferous measures approximately 21,7 x 14,2 cm This additional photo can be found on my Deviantart page, (am I allowed to post this link here?)

I see many of these fossils where I live. I was wondering if they are bamboo. I read that Millions of years ago, it use to be tropic in Eastern Canada.
