Fossils B/C

[Deeisenberg]

Early tetrapods from Red Hill, PA.
There is an area of amazingly preserved dinosaur fossils in Mongolia (fighting dinosaurs came from there).
The Iguanadons in that Belgian mine (some of the first dinosaurs found)

You mention a place in PA, did they do something that related to your area? I always think tests are going to be like that. Just wondering since you're from Harriton. Who was your Fossils partner? I met him last year.
I just read about the Mongolian fighting dinos last night. The actual specimen is pretty cool.

The tetrapod thing is something that I largely know of because it's a site I have collected from, however it really is of quite high relevance due to the presence of the earliest known tetrapods in North America outside of Greenland. They didn't actually ask about it though.

As for the fossils partner of whom you think, I think you are actually talking about me. I am the only male who competed for Harriton in fossils.

I would add La Brea, possibly Solnhofen for Archaeopteryx and others, and maybe Ischigualasto.

I agree

Hmm...I don't remember your username. Oh well. I'm off my break from fossils, time to get some deep information.

I'm starting with fusulinids for making quick facts pages: should I put Kingdom, Domain, Phylum on this page? I was originally planning to put genus, family, order, but obviously that would be irrelevant for fusulinids.

One of the mods was kind enough to offer to change it for me. I use Deeisenberg on chat, and everywhere else, I used to register to things with Inuyashakusho like 4 years ago (when I made this) but never use it anywhere anymore. It's just more convenient to have this switched like that to match everything else.

That explains why you have the same icon.
Gotcha.

Cool beans,
Ok new problem, until I get my new field guide, I'm at a loss with this question: what is the index for astraeospongia? Silurian-Devonian? Or just Silurian?

[Deeisenberg]

If no one else gets it for you, then I will be able to answer this at ~2:40PM EST tomorrow (assuming I remember) when I will be able to get at my binder.

Thanks, Deeisenburg. My frustration of the day is trying to decide which classification to use. By that I mean, who do I trust!? I am getting so many different answers. I just started using zipcodezoo.com but it conflicts with my smithsonian guide. Is anyone able to confirm Zipcodezoo's legitimacy?

[soobsession]

i have down Silurian to Devonian. I believe I got that info from the audubon field guide...

[Deeisenberg]

Paleodb.org also has Silurian-Devonian
Go with that.

Go with that.

Thanks, that looks like a helpful site so far, but where do you go to find the index? I found a lot of other useful stuff, but I must be overlooking an index somewhere.
