I am trying to identify fossils in these thin sections of Silurian sedimentary rocks from Lithuania. Any ideas? I am still learning and lacking so much in experience… 🥺
I think I got the Crinoids right and some Bryozoas, but that’s it.
.
Also, next to these there are some nice cathodoluminescence photos of the same thin sections 🤩 You can see growth zones in them!

Today marks the 190th year anniversary of the discovery of the of ! Ehrenberg first saw the tiny creature on November 25, 1832 (Hyman 1959).

This is my favorite of all . It has a unique triangled, hat-like shape with a thin bivalve shell and a pompom at the top (apical organ). It swims and captures food using cilia and has some finely organized muscles (first image).
