Dolomites with gastropods. Maybe Carboniferous or Permian?? Found in South Lithuania
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Dear Guys, In a time of two years I collected these gastropod fossils in dolomite erratics of Varena town, South Lithuania. There are many Naticopsis, Euomphalus like snails and also Worthenia, Omphalotrochus and Anomphalus are identified. The temporal range of the majority of these gastropod genera begins in Devonian and ends in Triassic or even early Jurassic. I would think these dolomites are Carboniferous or Permian in age but I would like to be sure which epoch they belong to and what other fossils I can expect to find in the future. Any help will be appreciated! Best Regards Domas At first, I will show Naticopsis like snails.- 11 replies

Molluscs and other fossils in spongiolite erratics of Lithuania. The age is needed to know
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Dear Guys, When I was in Varena town I was doing research of one erratic kind- grey and greenish spongiolites and collected many mollusc, foraminiferan and also brachiopod, vertebrate remains. I probably found Diovarilima, Barbatia, Ciliatocardium and other bivalves, cerithimorph Tarebia, brachiopods like Terebratulina, sawshark and fish remains. If anyone is able to identify these fossils, it would be very helpful. I would like to know the age of rock pieces and from The first impression I guess these erratics belong to Miocene or something similar. There were shallow marine conditions I think. Any help will be appreciated! Kind Regards Domas Picture 1. Anadara? bivalve- 34 replies
