    These are pictures of fossils stumbled upon by my son and me. They're currently being examined by pros (Doug Erwin and Emma Smith). We think they're Namacalathus. What do you think?

    It does rather resemble a series of cross-sections of Namacalathus.
    Where was it found and do you know the age of the rock?

    It's at 39.084523, -113.715651W. if that shows up in China, it's Google
    maps' fautl. Just change the sign. The age is from a geologic map for
    that part of Utah that doesn't have good resolution. I'me pretty
    familiar with limestone from other locations, and the age is right at
    the Ediacaran-Cambrian interface. It's the most easily accessible site imaginable. You can drive to it.

    Is Namacalathus known from North America? I see that it is, from British Columbia. But I don't know the geographic relationship of BC to Utah at
    that time. I suspect that it may have been a more recently accreted terrain. --- Synchronet 3.21d-Linux NewsLink 1.2
