Tidgy's Dad Posted July 15 Share Posted July 15 A brilliant mailbox score for me. From the Magnificently Marvelous Mike @minnbuckeye a selection of mostly brachiopods from the Early Devonian Haragan Formation of the Arbuckle Hills in southern Oklahoma. Now for some IDs, though I think I know most of them, they are nearly all new to my collection. Thanks so much, Mike, my friend. 1 3 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend.

Brachiopods, also no idea, but the number of species is 195 including Cambrian to Early Devonian and not including those above that are new species. Not nearly enough. 1 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend.

Tidgy's Dad Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 Another great parcel from my friend Brett, @Elmo. Three big bags of micromatrix from different locations. And a nice selection of macros from Calvert Cliffs and the two baggies bottom left are Purse State Park. Thank you so much, Brett, that'll keep me busy! 3 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend.

Ludwigia Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 I just added this Otodus (Carcharodon) sokolovi from the Eocene at Boujdour, Morocco to my collection in the development series of the big teeth sharks via online auction. Slant length is 6.5cm. Now I'm just patiently looking for auriculatus and chubutensis and the row will be complete. Greetings from the Lake of Constance.

pachy-pleuro-whatnot-odon Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Just got this rather unassuming ichthyosaur vertebra in today. What makes it exciting, however, is that it comes from east of Tamri, in Morocco - a country I was, up to this point, unaware of having had ichthyosaurs! What's more, deposits there date to the Valanginian stage of the Lower Cretaceous, a time-period from which very little is know about ichthyosaur evolution! All the same, the platypterygiine radiations had already taken place, making this vertebra either platypterygiine or, in a broader and more certain sense, ophthalmosaurid. As such, a really cool specimen! Size is about 6cm across... 4 1 'There's nothing like millions of years of really frustrating trial and error to give a species moral fibre and, in some cases, backbone' -- Terry Pratchett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis Arcand Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 I want to give a big thanks to my brother-in-law for generously gifting me his entire fossil collection... all two of them. Thanks to him, my collection now includes something other than just Ordovician fossils from Quebec! Baby steps, right? Received today by mail One fossil a day will keep you happy all day.

Exactly that was my first thought as I held it. All of those serrated carinae were not even visible on the pictures the seller made, we thought those were some boring striations at first. Thats why I'm even more happy with it, what a fun suprise Edited Monday at 03:59 PM by Brevicollis 1 My account and something about me : My still growing collection : My paleoart : Im just a guy who really loves fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
