Wow I love that last sand dollar. I want one of those where can i find one? I bet Dan knows.

anson,

i am not sure where this sand dollar came from. it was purchased by a gift shop that i worked for at the tucson show many years ago and it was sooo nice i had to get it. most of them do not have the beautiful pattern like this one. i vaguely remeber them saying it was from the coast of mexico, but i could be wrong. i should have bought more.

Well be careful with it, I had a nice one but it fell a few inches and hit another fossil and broke into a dozen or so pieces. I had it all nicely prepped and everything i was very disappointed.

4. Heteraster texanus(?), Walnut fm, Bell Co., TX

5. Macraster denisonensis(?), Duck Creek fm, Grayson Co., TX

6. Hemiaster calvini, Grayson fm, Tarrant Co., TX

7. Globator parryi, Boracho fm, Culberson Co., TX

11. Macraster pseudoelegans(?), Georgetown fm, Fort Worth member, Williamson Co., TX

All of the above came from my collection and are Cretaceous in age. The rest are from elsewhere - I can pick off the Moroccan material pretty easily! The big ammonite I gave you was Eopachydiscus marcianus, Duck Creek fm, Grayson Co., TX.

ok, i think i have the answer for two more. let me know if they could be correct..

the last one, (the cool sand dollar) is a Encope borealis, pliocene Baja Mexico.

the moroccan regular urchin is Psephechinus sp., jurassic, anti-atlas mountains.

now i am down to the argentine one.
