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!

Älteste Moostierchen der Welt waren gar keine. Über 500 Millionen Jahre alte Fossilien entpuppen sich als versteinerte Algen. #Fossil #Kambrium #Alge #Bryozoa https://www.scinexx.de/news/biowissen/aelteste-moostierchen-der-welt-waren-gar-keine/

Less than a week before #Christmas , so out #fossil hunting during the only warm day of the week.
Location: #MineralWellsFossilPark #MineralWells ( #PaloPinto county) Texas.
#Pennsylvanian ( #Carboniferous ) reef deposit.
Lots of #crinoids and #brachiopods as usual. Quite a few #sponges and large stick #bryozoa (alas no veil bryozoa this time), and 3 distinct species of #gastropod.

The necklace is partly inspired by this #bryozoa I saw when #scuba diving in New Zealand https://etsy.me/3UxkCyV
Today marks the 190th year anniversary of the discovery of the #cyphonautes #larva of #bryozoans! Ehrenberg first saw the tiny creature on November 25, 1832 (Hyman 1959).
This is my favorite #LarvalForm of all #MarineInvertebrates. 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).
