tom_mo Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Hello- I am posting for the first time on this site, it's been a great resource for comparing some concretions I've found over the past few years. I've been taking my son on these collecting adventures, and we seem to find at least one nice specimen per trip- although it sometimes take a few months for them to crack open! We found this concretion in Braidwood area, pit 11. It had already split but still together. I have some similar looking shrimp but not 100% sure what this is because the overall form looks a little different, so hoping to get some help here. Maybe it is a shrimp as well? thanks in advance for your help! -tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntonia Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Interesting, I don't have the knowledge to ID anything from Mazon Creek but someone else might recognize it @deutscheben @connorp @Nimravis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCFossils Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 This appears to be a partial shrimp or molt. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdp Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Definitely shrimp. Wondering if that's the south end of a northbound Belotelson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
