Part 3 Trip to Oglesby 2/18/2023

[Joseph Fossil]

Been meaning to post these photos a while back but got caught up with preparing for Spring Break. Here's some more fossils myself, @Tales From the Shale, and another friend found a few weeks ago at a Pennsylvanian age, around 300 Million Years ago, rock formation in Oglesby Illinois. I hope these specimens could be Identified properly.

 

 

 

 

I have no idea what this specimen could be?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some brachiopod and possible Chomodus sp. bits I would like a proper ID for.

 

 

 

 

Possible brachiopod?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Possible brachiopod or shell crushing chondrichthyan tooth?

 

 

 

 

I don't know what this is (maybe a part of a Ctenacanthiform tooth or part of a shell crushing chondrichthyan tooth)?

 

 

 

 

 

Brachiopod specimen I would like a proper ID of.

I'm by no means an expert on this material, but I fear that you're probably not going to be able to id these poorly preserved and indefinite finds beyond the class or order level, unless there's someone here who is very familiar with this fauna and could at least take an educated guess.

This one appears to be very similar to Chonetina flemingi.
