barefootgirl Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Yup, I'm jealous! Those are super sweet, I'm glad you found them.

PaleoRon Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Sweet. I have never found a complete trilobite. I usually just find trilo-butts, or fragments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, only worthless for my collection cause I was lucky enough to get that really good one. If i didnt find that really good A-Grade one, then of course these would be my collection pieces. And if I get kicked off the forum, then who will cause all the problems? Ha!! RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dicranurus Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Nice trilobites! I think genus is Olenellus, but what is species?

RJB Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 Nice trilobites! I think genus is Olenellus, but what is species? Dang good question Didranurus.

Shamalama Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Since you insist that those are terrible trilobites... I'll take them off your hands. Just skip them on over my way. Great finds, I'm very envious. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers. When a roadcut presents itself, they tend to lurch and weave.

VERY............VERY...............JEALOUS. I certainly dont do this to make anyone jelous, well except for micropterus, hes another concretion guy and that guy finds some serious concs!!! But I am spoiled. I used to bring everything home, but that was quite a few years ago. Now I dont waist my time with most non-complete non-collectable grade specimens or at least I try not to. Heck, If I did I wouldnt have any room left! RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
