3 years, 2 months ago3 years, 2 months agoGreetings @corinne-daycross ! Unfortunately, most of my field experience is in the Late Cretaceous and Paleogene strata of the Great Plains states. However, I believe is it reasonable to assume your specimen is likely from a Jurassic herbivorous dinosaur or similar reptilian of the era. Nothing strikes me about as being from a theropod. Wish I…[Read more]

3 years, 7 months ago3 years, 7 months ago@corinne-daycross is absolutely right. It’s surprising how erosion can make such convincing pseudofossil at times.

3 years, 9 months ago3 years, 9 months agoHi @corinne-daycross I have an ID now. This is a Hydrangea (genus Hydrangea) bract. Order Cornales, Family Hydrangeaceae. Would you mind updating the information please? Thanks! Nice find, I didn’t know of it from GRF but it is in Clarno (OR) and Chuckanut (WA) and the Miocene of the Latah (ID). It is not Florissantia, a similar flora structure)…[Read more]

3 years, 9 months ago3 years, 9 months ago@samantha-ocon and @corinne-daycross oh wait! I’m looking at it incorrectly! I think this is the floral bract of a Hydrangea! I see some venation of the bract and in the center (bottom of the bract) is where the flower would be. Order Cornales, Family Hydrangeaceae, Genus Hydrangea. I’m not putting a specific epithet on it because I don’t think we…[Read more]

3 years, 9 months ago3 years, 9 months ago@samantha-ocon and @corinne-daycross I’m not quite sure. The dark reniform object may be a seed attached to an axis or that could be the wing of a fruit. It’s angiosperm, but other than that I can’t say. One of the challenges is that there isn’t a complete treatment of GRF flora or fruit, just isolated publications here and there on one or a…[Read more]

3 years, 9 months ago3 years, 9 months ago@corinne-daycross and @samantha-ocon I can’t see the secondaries but shape wise it could be Salix (willow). They look small (an observation, not a diagnostic feature).

3 years, 9 months ago3 years, 9 months agoHi @corinne-daycross! I just shared this with the other paleobotanists in my labgroup and we don’t know what it is. It is likely a Eudicot. What we can say though is that it is a fruit and that it is actually upside down. The long part is the pedicil (where the fruit attaches to the branch). The bulbous part is the fruit (capsular or fleshy?) and…[Read more]

4 years, 8 months ago4 years, 8 months agoHi, @corinne-daycross – We can update your taxonomy to be Kingdom Animalia > Phylum Chordata > Class Chondrichthyes > Order Carchariniformes > Family Hemigaleidae. I bet if you use the website and use the taxon wizard and type in Hemipristis serra it will populate them for you so you don’t have to manually enter in the information.
