Here's a few finds from the C&D canal from a trip that my wife and I took on Tuesday.

Very nice... You found a Terebratulina Cooperi brachiopod too! They are very diagnostic to the Mount Laurel formation I'm finding out.

Hey guys, I don't know if you already know this but if you go to the Delaware Geological Survey's website, you will find two very good guides to C&D canal fossils in PDF format.

Don,

Yeah, I downloaded a few of the .pdf's available on their site and have been using them to ID some of what I've found. Thanks!
