2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months agoHi @neven-popov-2 I am going to try and narrow down the lithostrat and geochron of these gastropods for you! Do you have the English term for the location of where these are being found?

2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months ago@neven-popov-2 Hi there! You can go ahead and fill in the taxonomic information as Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Mollusca and Class: Gastropoda!

2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months agoHi! @helen-hopkins Adding location information for all of your fossil find would help a lot with narrowing the ID! Knowing the locations helps to identifying the stratigraphy and time period that a specimen might be from!

2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months agoHi there! @helen-hopkins This is a lovely vertebra! Like I mentioned in a prior comment, this would be a case where a scale (like a ruler) helps tell us a lot about the specimen! This photos are also a bit blurry, but @smoran might be able to help with ID. This fossil is rather worn, so it may be be able to be IDed past verterbra!

2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months ago@helen-hopkins Hi! Generally, when uploading a photo for ID, the photo should be clear, against a simple, neutral color background, and include a scale (like a ruler or coin). This does just look like a conglomerate or rock/concrete with barnacles growing on it, from what I can make out!

2 years, 4 months ago2 years, 4 months agoHi @helen-hopkins there’s not a lot of diagnostic features in this photo! Do you have a photo of the short end? And can you fill out the info of the location of where it was found? This can help with the ID!

2 years, 5 months ago2 years, 5 months agoHi there @driss-ouhaddou, as @leonardo-miranda said! You have some gastropod shell fossils in there, as well as minerals! For us to ID and catalogue specimen, they must each be posted as there own specimen with their location information inputed!

2 years, 5 months ago2 years, 5 months ago@benjamin-devries hi there! It is a little difficult to distinguish any telling features from this photo! When photographing a specimen, putting it on a flat, well lit surface (usually in a constrasting color) with a scale (like a ruler or coin) for reference, can help with ID! If you update this post with those features, perhaps we can help you…[Read more]

2 years, 5 months ago2 years, 5 months agoAs stated in the other comments, color can be deceptive when it comes to bones @victoria-fowler! Another way to test them is by weight! As bones mineralize (or fossilize) they become heavier. If you have tile or concrete floors, gently dropping them on it creates a pinging noise that is quite distinctive in fossils! Hope this helps!
