FOSSIL UPLOAD
First, make sure you have a myFOSSIL account, this is required to upload your fossil information. If you are interested in seeing if your fossil can be used for research purposes, please follow through the following steps. They walk you through the information needed and why it is helpful for other scientists to use it for research questions. Even if the information you have on your fossil is not enough to be used for research purposes it will still benefit the community through educational means and help others identify their fossils. Specimens that have sufficient information will be uploaded to iDigBio and GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility) for public accessibility.
If you have already gone through the stepwise process that explains each piece of data please click through to a summary tab where you can enter in your specimen data on a single page.

Hi, @tony-gascoigne-bates! Do you know where this was found? Also, a scale bar would be useful!
hi. I found this in Greece. on a little island called Kalymnos in the Dodecanese.
you can see that there is another just up to the right I believe but not as pronounced
Wow… so… I just found a tiny bluish stone I was going to post on here with nearly the same markings but found in Nampa Idaho. How can I share without having to add all of my info. I do not everything about the stone. I f dad imply found it! Lol!
Hi @tony-gascoigne-bates – it looks like the cross section of a shelly.
I’m not familiar with the geology of Greece, so am not sure I can narrow it down from there. It could be a brachiopod or a bivalve depending on age and environment.
is there a way of extracting the fossil from the rock? would be interested to see more of it
