Due to some rather unexpected circumstances, I've had to change URL
addresses for six of my fossils-related websites. These are strictly
personal, non-commercial pages, by the way:
1) Late Pennsylvanian Fossils In Kansas
https://inyo7.coffeecup.com/kansasfossils/kansasfossils.html - Explore
the Midwest to discover the classic late Pennsylvanian fossil wealth of Kansas--abundant, supremely well-preserved associations of such
invertebrate animals as brachiopods, bryozoans, conodonts, corals, echinoderms, fusulinids, mollusks (gastropods, pelecypods, cephalopods, scaphopods), and sponges; one of the great places on the planet to find fossils some 307 to 299 million years old.
2) A Visit To Fossil Valley, Great Basin Desert, Nevada
https://inyo8.coffeecup.com/fossilvalley/fossilvalley.html - Take a
virtual field trip to a Nevada locality that yields the most complete, diverse, fossil assemblage of terrestrial Miocene plants and animals
known from North America--and perhaps the world, as well. Yields
insects, leaves, seeds, conifer needles and twigs, flowering structures, pollens, petrified wood, diatoms, algal bodies, mammals, amphibians,
reptiles, bird feathers, fish, gastropods, pelecypods (bivalves), and ostracods.
3) Fossils In Millard County, Utah
https://inyo8.coffeecup.com/fossilmountain/millardfossils.html - Take
virtual field trips to two world-famous fossil localities in Millard
County, Utah--Wheeler Amphitheater in the trilobite-bearing middle
Cambrian Wheeler Shale; and Fossil Mountain in the brachiopod-ostracod-gastropod-echinoderm-trilobite rich lower Ordovician Pogonip Group.
4) Paleozoic Era Fossils At Mazourka Canyon, Inyo County, Californi
https://inyo8.coffeecup.com/mazourka/mazourka.html - Visit a productive Paleozoic Era fossil-bearing area near Independence, California--along
the east side of California's Owens Valley, with the great Sierra Nevada
as a dramatic backdrop--a paleontologically fascinating place that
yields a great assortment of invertebrate animals, including trilobites, brachiopods, crinoids (and other kinds of echinoderms), corals,
graptolites, bryozoans, conodonts, and a rather rare Silurian to
Devonian age green algae called Verticillopora annulata.
5) In Search Of Fossils In The Tin Mountain Limestone, California
https://inyo8.coffeecup.com/tinmountain/tinmountain.html
- Journey to the Death Valley area of California to explore the highly fossiliferous Lower Mississippian Tin Mountain Limestone; visit three localities that provide easy access to a roughly 358 million year-old
calcium carbonate accumulation that contains well preserved corals, brachiopods, bryozoans, conodonts, crinoids, and ostracods.
6) Early Cambrian Fossils Of Westgard Pass, California
http://inyo8.coffeecup.com/westgardpass/westgardpass.html - Visit the
Westgard Pass area, a world-renowned geologic wonderland east of Big
Pine, California, in the White-Inyo Mountains, to examine one of the
best places on Earth to find archaeocyathids--a calcareous sponge that
went extinct some 510 million years ago, never surviving past the earlyCambrian; also present there in rocks over a half billion years old
are locally common trilobites, in addition to annelid and arthropod
trails, brachiopods, and echinoderms.
