Bigby-Cannon Limestone

[DWhatley]

I'm really curious about this stuff, any ideas?

My first impression was preconsumed droppings

 

[Terri]

I had to look up "precondumed." Help? (showed no results)

Kevin goes to bed to early

 

[DWhatley]

If I could spell (or perhaps type accurately) you would easily find the definition

 

[DWhatley]

Perhaps he really is sawing logs

 

[Terri]

Well that makes a lot more sense, I really should have figured that one out on my own, must be that old age thing.

This one doesn't show a lot of detail, but it's fairly slender for it's length and the septa are closely spaced, possible Ellesmerocerad? Bit of an eye strainer but I like it anyway.

Yes

[Terri]

Yes four times, excellent! I'd really like to know how you got the tree off the roof to saw it.

On the second pic. of the ?Elles. at the bottom there's a blackish, circular blob kind of centered, could that possibly be some sign of the siphuncle or just some goo. I'm so scientific, some day I will learn proper terminology and actually discuss a fossil properly!

 

[Terri]

Endoceras??...I really feel like I should know this, but I'm not sure .

All I can see is a widening near where the siphuncle should be... could be an Endocerid or an Actinocerid, Endocerid would have endocones and Actinocerid would have bulbs.

The tree was near the power line, so the city sawed it, but they left the stump for me

just goo

 

[Terri]

the city sawed it

"The Gov." comes in handy that way every once in a while.

could be an Endocerid or an Actinocerid

Well, at least I got close, comparing it to the other Actinocerid I've found I think it's probably an Endocerid. But we should assume question marks with all of my id'ing.

This next fossil which I'm pretty sure is a cephalopod (I found it along with the sponge I can't seem to locate, and haven't found this one yet either) picture not great and my shadow got in the way. Bottom center of the fossil there is a round disk that looks like shell material, I'm not sure what it is, interesting though...

 

[Terri]

It reminds me a little of the possible Allotrioceras (not the disc thing, but the body of the fossil) that you id'd from post #10 in this thread.
