Kalkberg / Becraft: Brachiopoda, Bryozoa, Crinoidea

[Bennett-s]

Here are photos after cleaning up some smaller finds from Rickard Hill.  If you recognize the species of any of these guys, please let me know. Unfortunately most of the specimens were found as shown, meaning few of them are completely intact. Most if not all are from the Kalkberg Formation. Becraft lies just above and Coeymans just below, so I cannot conclude that some of these fossils came from those formations. They are all exposed at the collection site. If anyone can tell the difference based on looks, let me know.

2. I love how the columnals are arranged in a row here.

 

 

3. I know that the spheres near the top row are Hindia sphaeroidalis and the top row, second from left is Favosites helderbergiae. The large Brachiopod on the bottom row, left of center, is Leptaena rhomboidalis.

6. What are we looking at here? The black dots are lichen; am referring to the fossil.
