Two Inch or 5 cm Phacops Eldredgeops rana from Penn Dixie! Great! Hey, wait a minute.
Biotalker posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Penn Dixie Fossil Park in Hamburg, NY is known for small but plentiful Eldredgeops rana and aside from a rare mortality plate, finding a complete 2 inch specimen is a big deal! So imagine my excitement when I uncovered this. OK, not entirely complete because I messed up the extraction a bit. But this unfortunate character managed to lie down on one pleural lobe, and get squished literally laterally. All three pics are the same trilobite, with the third picture being the classic dorsal view. Hath this nonconforming fellow no sense of the future? How common is this in your experiences?- 2 replies
