4 years, 9 months ago4 years, 9 months agoHi, @don-megahan, How did you take your images? Is it possible the classification is slightly different. I’ve found some literature that suggests Gastropoda>Littorinimorpha>Tornidae>Solariorbis https://neogeneatlas.net/genera/Solariorbis/
You have a lot of really high quality information in your specimens but most are missing scale bars to help…[Read more]

7 years, 2 months ago7 years, 2 months agoWe’ve got a fair number of folks interested in shells on the site–I’d say that @bostickkw has expertise on shells, so you might want to ask him, or maybe @don-megahan@michael-reagin or @scoller! And I’m sure @crobins would be interested in the horseshoe crab!

7 years, 6 months ago7 years, 6 months agoWe’re at 492 public fossils on myFOSSIL! @lance-comfort, are you going to beat me to uploading the 500th fossil?? I have a couple more from the Dallas Paleo Society field trip last October to upload plus some from a field trip taken with the Dry Dredgers, but I have some work to get to today…
Maybe @don-megahan will beat us both, or @billmoher!…[Read more]

7 years, 7 months ago7 years, 7 months agoThanks, @evan-taylor! I have some Texas fossils from a field trip I took with the Dallas Paleo Society last October but (shame on me!) I can’t remember the age. Anyway, glad you’re on myFOSSIL. It’d be awesome to see some more Texas fossils on the site. @don-megahan has uploaded a lot of Texas fossils, are they from similar ages that you dig in?

7 years, 8 months ago7 years, 8 months agoHello Don,
I just saw your images of fossil gastropods in our fossil gallery and wondering why some are so yellowish. Is it because of the lighting or is it the real color??? However thanks for sharing these great findings.
best
Ronny
