jbswake Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) Not so sure this counts as baby fish are actually minnows. Here is a small one I collected in 2004 and then the other fish has a baby about to drop. The baby is there, but it's late. Maybe a New Year's baby. Both are 50MYBP Eohiodon rosei fish from McAbee, BC. John Edited December 23, 2011 by jbswake "Blimey! Would you look at the size of that!"McAbee is the other woman!

matt cable Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Here's a few babies from my collection. A tiny 2mm Eldredgeops (Phacops) from the Arkona formation. Photo courtesy my company's SEM. A 2mm juvenile crinoid calyx from Sylvannia, OH. It might be Arthroacantha carpenteri. Photo via SEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saki007 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 (edited) Really love the thread, Jim- such amazing specimens. Here's one of mine, a complete Mucrospirifer sp. My camera hates it but loves Mr. Lincoln's ear. Edited March 3, 2012 by saki007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indy Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Wow! Nice colors.... The ones with the 'zebra' stripes.... Are those grooves on the shells, or are they residual pigmentation? The "stripes" are preserved color bandings. Color and color banding preservation at this locality is outstanding... especially noticeable with the "babies". It's understood that color preservation is debatable, however, when wet ... the "babies" look like they are alive.

Wrangellian Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Are those crinoids not blastoids? They look so to my minimally-trained eye. They are great either way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmshoemaker Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Yep, they are crinoids. Coincidentally as I was looking through some old rock I left out to weather (to isolate brachiopods and other fossils) I found another juvenile eucalyptocrinus (and an impressive dalmanites eye) after posting.
