milkhawk69 Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Hi everyone, I just went exploring at the beaches of Daly City and found some cool fossil sand dollars. Any idea on species? I’m not too sure the time range but I do know the Merced formation is nearby! Thanks 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ted coulianos Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Looks like Scutellaster interlineatum that has been found in the Pliocene/Pleistocene Merced Formation exposed in Daly City beaches; image below is from an internet search, but there was also a FF thread on the same subject some time ago if you want to do a search (sorry, but for some reason I can't link it here); hope this helps: 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
