Hi everyone I’m Ian, I’m excited to be part of a group of likeminded individuals to share my love of everything fossil related with. I’m so glad this group exists. I’m looking for some good places around Missouri to find some nice specimens of trilobite, any thoughts?

Contributions By Amateurs In Paleontology

An interesting article that discusses the role of amateurs in Paleontology. Contributions by amateur paleontologists in 21st century paleontology by John A. Catalani -
I have had my nose in creek rocks since I discovered my first crinoid stem at a camp in Fairview TN when I was 8. Back then I thought it was indian money, but now I know that it is an even better treasure from the past. Currently my collection is composed of crinoids and rugosa corals, but I hope to find many other sea species. I continue my modest creek digging and hope to share my finds with you all and hopefully get help when I can't identify something. Attatched is a photo of the stems and segments I found as a kid. But I have many more fossils where those came from and will love to share in future posts. Thanks! -Alexandra
