1 year, 7 months ago1 year, 7 months ago@evripidis-papaevripidis I agree with @corinne-daycross, I would avoid using white glue and water if you can get your hands on paleobond, butvar, paraloid or any other acetone-dissolving plastic. Though, in all honesty, with a fossil like this as long as you aren’t touching/rubbing the surface too often, I wouldn’t be too worried about it…[Read more]

1 year, 9 months ago1 year, 9 months ago@corinne-daycross this is a cetacean (whale or dolphin) vertebra (or more accurately part of it, the processses are broken off and only the centrum remains). Definitely a fossil, I would guess from the east coast. Do you have location info on it? If so I can walk you through the process of making this research grade!

1 year, 12 months ago1 year, 12 months agoI concur with @corinne-daycross. I would go further and say this is Knightia eocaena Jordan, 1907. There are 2 species of Knightia commonly found in the Green River Formation of Wyoming. K. eocaena and K. alta. K. alta has a deeper belly.

2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months ago@gail-chapman@corinne-daycross Chances are this came from a Pennsylvanian formation in the Douglas Group. This appears to be Alethopteris though Pecopteris can’t be ruled out entirely. I doubt there is any venation preserved but that would differentiate the two. It is not Sphenopteris because the pinnules are not lobed and it is not Neuropteris…[Read more]

2 years, 8 months ago2 years, 8 months ago@corinne-daycross and @allen-schoffner The bryozoan genus Sulcoretipora can be found in that formation and gets to be that size. However, bryozoans usually have a regular zooid pattern (the holes/bumps where the polyps live). Because of that, I believe this to be an arthropod leg.
