Hi there, An introductory post as I just made an account today. I'm an adjunct professor at Lake Forrest College teaching Ecology and Evolution this semester. I took my class down to the Mazonia-Braidwood South Unit to gather nodules from the hillsides between Eagle and Monster Lakes. We are currently freeze-thaw cycling our specimens and hope to have a few fossils to share soon. I see myself spending a great deal of time reading through your preparation and preservation forms in the next couple of weeks. I think we found a jelly, already opened. Hope to get to know some of you and get some good advice regarding how to treat these treasures. John Wilk Here's a link to the pic (posted on my department's feed:

Hello forum,while i was metal detecting a field, i have found a "natica" peep out from a clump of dirt. It seems has many light-brown spot all over the shell and a large navel canal. Considering the plus common specimen of Naticidae that are my area, what's the correct genus:Naticarius or Notocochlis, the fly-specked moon snail or the tiger moon snail? To you the hard judge. Thanks! PS: "natica" in in italiano it means "buttock" Davide
