Malibu Creek Canyon Narrows - Oyster Bed and Shell Fossils - Southern California
ezeemonee posted a topic in Member Collections
Some examples of fossils found in the cliffs and boulders of Malibu Creek Canyon Narrows. Oyster Bed and Moon Snail and Turritella Shell Fossils. The species guess for the Oysters based on research is Ostrea (Pycnodonte) Howelli, but I am not sure. Probably Eocene period fossils. Maybe Miocene. Nice area of Malibu creek in the Santa Monica Mountains but difficult to access.-

Some very, very tiny moon snails from the Lincoln Creek Formation (late Eocene-early Miocene), Centralia Washington. I think these are Natica as opposed to Polinices. Affixed to shale with superglue and consolidated with paraloid.
