Boneman007 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Sunday's fun: A day in the pawpaw formation of North Texas. Three photos: 1, Cretolamna appendiculata shark tooth surrounded by ammonites. 2. Handful of pawpaw formation fossils 3. Closeup of Linuparis sp. lobster carapace, and Leptostyrax macrorhiza shark tooth. I will add pictures of the cleaned fossils later!

Fossildude19 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Wow, Boneman, Awesome finds. I love the tiny ammonites and the shark teeth, but the Lobster is wicked cool!

Boneman007 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 I like the pawpaw because after a full day of hunting my finds still fit into a pill bottle!! Not to mention, anytime I can pull a Leptostyrax out, it's a good day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramo Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Looks a lot funner that the blizzard we had up here Sunday. For one species to mourn the death of another is a new thing under the sun. -Aldo Leopold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertman Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Dude, I was going to say...you finding a Leptostyrax...doesn't happen every day. It's like me finding a Cretodus. No, wait, nothing is that rare. Nice finds, bud! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamalama Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Looks like a fun crawl when the mud is dry! -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers.

Boneman007 Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 Dan showed me the pics on his phone that day!! Wowzers!! Sweet finds! Believe it or not, I found this stuff AFTER Dan and I had hit the site before! Its hard to believe that this site keeps producing. It's only 100 yards X 30yards of exposure...

barefootgirl Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Great haul there, congrats!
