Over the Thanksgiving holiday I received an image of a fossil imprint of some sort of coiled nautiloid. It was found on the Indiana side of the Ohio River in the Louisville, Kentucky area. The only fossils I know of like that are found in the Louisville Limestone of Silurian Period. If it is a Silurian fossil it might be a
Graftonoceras graftonense?. Other Silurian cephalopods found in the area are the
Lituites marshi? shown an
earlier posting and the
Bickmorites shown
here.
Thanks to Dana for the images.
I agree with Graftonoceras
