4 years, 8 months ago4 years, 8 months agoGood afternoon, so I was down at the creek near my house with today and found this. It was in the water. it’s completely fossilised. I don’t know what it is or if it’s a modern animal or something a bit older?
Where in Deepdale, Geraldton, Western Australia and we found it in the Chapman River. I’ve had a good look at some books I have and it…[Read more] -

Hi, @elizabeth-jenkin – It’s hard to tell what this is. It looks like some kind of shelly maybe a mollusk but I’m hesitant to make any guesses. Is it still in situ or were you able to bring any of the fossils home? I’m also unfamiliar with the location, could you include the country as well? I can look up the locality on a geologic map to narrow…[Read more]

Hi thank you so much, I wasn’t able to bring it home as there was a few in a massive rock. The country Australia and I found it in bushland about 25 k’s east of Geraldton. I long the Geraldton Mount magnet Road

Aloha, looks like an imprint of a marine neogastropod—possibly in the superfamily: Conoidea—maybe narrowing down some might be a distant relative of the turrids we have today. It’s on a guess though…but interesting broad spiral cords. There is a lot of material from the Miocene that’s being worked on…I have found new items in the Pleisto…[Read more]

This actually looks like the back of a skull of perhaps a mammal but it’s hard to tell. It’s definitely very very cool!
@elizabeth-jenkin – is there a local university or museum you could reach out to? Usually they have better resources on the local fauna. Unfortunately, I think our member-base is lacking in Australian experts (for now!).
Thank you so much I’ll take it to the museum and see what they say
@elizabeth-jenkins This seems like one of closest museums to you http://www.samuseum.sa.gov.au/research/palaeontology/fossils
I’m really curious if it is the back of a kangaroo skull
It might be, i’ll keep you up-to-date thank you for your help
