Thomas.Dodson Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 Hi all, I made it out collecting recently (finally) and collected some Oxytropidoceras type ammonites. I've made an attempt to identify them to species but don't have a lot of experience with Texas ammonites yet and the Oxytropidoceras group is a rather complicated one. I appreciate any input people may have. I believe these all come from the Kiamichi Formation, Bosque County. For the first two, Oxytropidoceras supani? uddeni? @BobWill@DPS Ammonite #1 #2 #3. Oxytropidoceras texanum maybe? #4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWill Posted September 6 Share Posted September 6 With 10 or so possibilities to consider, I never try to wade through the subtle distinctions separating species to make that determination, even on finds with the best preservation. Good luck! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck! Understandable, I haven't really tried in the past but decided to for these. I definitely got my work cut out for me! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
