Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

sea urchin

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This is a common Jurassic sea urchin fossil, reaching up to 4 centimeters in diameter. There are many bumps that are used to support thick spines.

Heart sea urchin

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

It is a heart-shaped submerged cavity that is currently thought to have survived from the Paleocene to the present day. It can reach a diameter of up to 5 cm.

Sea buds

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This sea bud echinoderm lived in the Carboniferous period and has a long tentacle structure for feeding.

starfish

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This extinct Early Jurassic starfish is about 2.5 cm wide and has 5 stout tentacles.

Sea snake-tailed echinoderms

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

It is an early echinococcosis, native to the Ordovician and Silurian strata, with a diameter of up to 10 cm and 5 relatively short stout tentacles.

Jurassic Sea Lily

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

The Jurassic Sea Lily is named after its star-shaped small bone pieces and can exceed 1 meter in height. It is often found attached to silicified wood.

Devonian sea lily

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Up to 3 cm in diameter, this marine lily from the Devonian formation has a tall, pentagonal cup-shaped crown at the tip of its stem.

Sea Apple

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

The pseudo-marine forest is characterized by a long diamond-shaped respiratory structure that lived in the Silurian and Devonian periods, attached to the seabed with stems.

belemnite

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This is a thick squid arrow stone from the Jurassic period with calcite guard plate, about 10 cm long.

Brachiopods

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

The paraphyllite is a brachiopod commonly found in Triassic and Jurassic strata, with a rounded shell up to 3 cm wide and clearly visible growth patterns.

Gimmicky shellfish brachiopods

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Found in the early Jurassic strata, it is a small brachiopod up to 1 cm wide.

There are hinged brachiopods

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

It is a brachiopod produced in the Ordovician, Silurian and Devonian strata, up to 5 cm wide, with a concentric and radial thread on the shell.

Swamp clams

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Produced in non-marine rock formations of the Carboniferous Period, the Carboniferous Mussel has a conical shell. Its fossils can be used to determine relative dating.

Ammonite

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This Cretaceous-era ammonite mollusk matured up to 10 cm in diameter and had a shell covered with threads.

Devonian ammonite

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Ammonite is an early Devonian ammonite with a thin thread that fills the shell. Some species have an uncommon triangular shell.

Beaked crusts

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Native to Devonian and Carboniferous strata, cone clams are similar to clams, but without active articulation.

nautilus

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This early Nautilus relative had a very abducted spiral ring. Covered nautiluses are found in Carboniferous rock formations.

oysters

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

This curly-billed oyster fossil was produced in the Triassic and Jurassic periods, with a large hook-like shell flap and a smaller flattened shell flap.

Clams are close relatives

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Found in the Ordovician strata, the dipterocarp clam is an early double-shell clam up to 6 cm wide, with radial threads on the surfaces of both flaps.

clams

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

The thick-shelled clam is a small bivalve species from the Cretaceous to the Miocene, with clear concentric growth lines on its shell.

scallops

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Found in Jurassic to modern strata, this scallop is a bivalve mollusk that swims by swinging its threaded shell flap.

Ordovician gastropods

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

A gastropod mollusk native to the Silurian to Permian strata, the Murchison snail can grow up to 5 cm tall and has ridges on the spiral ring.

Jurassic gastropods

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Found in Jurassic and Cretaceous rock formations, this gastropod mollusk has a large, spiraling, radial shell.

Carboniferous ammonites

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

An ammonite mollusk from the Devonian and Carboniferous rock formations, which has angular sutures at the junction of its chamber walls and shell.

Triassic ammonite

Fossils - Fossils of Invertebrates (II)

Found in triassic strata , ammonite is an ammonite mollusk. Its shell is extremely decorative, with a thick horizontal rib of the external rotation type.
