Goniatites

Here are some Middle Devonian Period Goniatites found in the Mahantango Formation in the state of Pennsylvania.

Thanks to Dave for the images.

 

Fossils in the Snow

Some snow has finally accumulated in the Louisville, Kentucky area. It was maybe 1 cm or so and contributed to about 100 auto accidents. I am guessing the melted snow on the road froze and helped with all the accidents.

I decided to document the occasion of snow by photographing some of the fossils outside on the cleaning racks.  Devonian Period corals found in Clark County, Indiana.  On a side note, the Indiana State Museum has taken quite a few pictures of their fossil collection and posted it on their website.  Here is a sampling of horn corals pictures.

Unidentified Horn Coral

This horn coral was found in Clark County, Indiana. It is of the Devonian Period and I am still try to figure out its identification.

UPDATE (2021): This could be a Bordenia knappi (Hall, 1882). Found in the Speed Limestone of Clark County, Indiana USA.
