Recommended Posts

Short trip to Kharkiv region on to the famous Oxfordian sea fauna site. Theoretically you can find the following fossils there: Septaliporia, Terebratula, Zeilleria, Nucula, Macrodon, Modiola, Ostrea, Pecten, Avicula, Trigonia, Dendrochelia, Thamnastraea, Isastraea, Stylina, Monlivaultia, Nucleolites, Paracidaris, Pecten, Lima, Pholadomya, Modiola.

I'm not an expert on the fauna at all but found something to share.

What, no bark? Great finds Roman. For a minute there I almost thought you were in France poaching one of Gery's sites! :D:P
