Clearly some nice fossils can be found, if you know exactly where to look, but there is a reason we don't see a lot of Puerto Rican fossils. Don Paleontology is a very scarce hobby and barely any locals here have any knowledge of fossils, and a lot of them still have the thought that fossils are only found in museums.
Merritt Island, Florida - Pleistocene fossil photos

Here is a series of five images showcasing some of my finds from the first hunt through the Merritt Island matrix. I have just begun to study the fossils in this intriguing matrix, and hope that I haven't got too many wrong. There are so many possibilities when you find a bone in this stuff. It m...
St. Clair, Pennsylvania - Fern Fossils - The Fossil Forum

This is a category showcasing member collections All plant fossils were found in the Llewellyn Formation (300 mya, Pennsylvanian Period) and are one of the few places where one can find these very detailed white (sometimes yellow) ferns on a striking contrast of black shale. The plants died and fell into the swamp, where in a low temperature, pressure, and oxygen environment the plant tissue ...
Delaware Beach Fossils, Who Knew? - The Fossil Forum

The Delaware Geological Survey, as far as I can find, has no public record of fossils at the beach. They note the Cretaceous at the C&D Canal, the Miocene in a farm field that got bulldozed for a highway, Pleistocene silicified wood in the fields and streams just south of the canal, and plant impressions from the canal down to the southern border.

23 Apr 2026 at 12:42am
Hi All, Was in Nashville, TN for several days for a bachelor party! Had an amazing time enjoying music, food, way too many drinks, and even managed to squeeze in a fossil hunt! We had to Uber everywhere, so I picked a somewhat convenient spot, which just so happened to be a Target parking lot. Th...

Pleistocene micros from Merritt Island, Florida

Pleistocene ray, fish, salamander, frog, snake, lizard and mammal specimens from matrix from the Melbourne Bone Bed from the Indian River, Florida. I want to thank John Sacha for supplying the matrix. This matrix was basically shells with fossil specimens. This was an extremely interesting matrix...
