RomanK Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 (edited) Lepidophloios cone? Or Sigillariostrobus? This afternoon I explored one of my favourable site and found in one big rock fragment of Lepidophloios bark with halonial scars (Halonia tortuosa) and cones. Rock was very fragile so I save only one cone. Edited November 13, 2012 by RomanK Roman http://s1143.photobu.../donbassfossil/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RomanK Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 Thank you Missourian and JohnJ! Another side of the splitted specimen. At the far bottom part you can see one more strobus but cut across (round attached thing). Roman http://s1143.photobu.../donbassfossil/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamalama Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Very cool find. That Halonia tortuosa is a very beautiful and interesting fossil to explore visually. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave. To them, the roadcut is a portal, a fragment of a regional story, a proscenium arch that leads their imaginations into the earth and through the surrounding terrain. - John McPheeIf I'm going to drive safely, I can't do geology. - John McPheeCheck out my Blog for more fossils I've found: http://viewsofthemahantango.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I do not familiar with fauna as good as flora, but I sent you one example of marine faune in Donbass http://www.donpaleo.ru/kramatorsk/photo/index.htm and Russian link (but English language) http://www.lakeneosho.org/Russia/index.html Regards Roman Roman http://s1143.photobu.../donbassfossil/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krimfossil Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Hello Roman, thank you very mutch for the information. The second link is new for me. The first link I know. The webpage from Vladislav V. Osetrov is a fantastic and very informative literature about fossilsites in Donbas. I have test it in Kramatorsk and in the south of Donetsk City. But the problem is some names of fossils are not actually. Because this is the determination of some brachiopods not so easy. best regards Ronald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
