Help requested: Western NY / PA Late Devonian eurypterids & sponges
pefty posted a topic in Fossil Hunting Trips
This Missourian is headed out to the Late Devonian of western New York state and Pennsylvania this coming week and hoping for a little help from y'all on localities for eurypterids and the sponge Hydnoceras. Are Clarke's (1920) Hydnoceras localities at Brown Hill (near Cohocton, NY) and Irish Hill (near Bath, NY) still productive and accessible? Are Ehlers' (1935) eurypterid localities at Bush Hill (near Smethport, PA)? Or are there other spots I should be checking out? I understand that the Trimmers Rock Formation in the vicinity of Bloomsburg, PA, is also worth a look for eurypterids, but I don't have any pinpoints mapped. If you're local to the area and want to show me the way yourself, I'll gladly bring you some Missouri crinoids Thanks in advance . . .- 3 replies
