Lyriocrinus melissa Hall, Waldron Shale, Clark Co., Indiana
This specimen was collected by me during a "Young Paleontologist Camp"
outing. The specific location will not be named here. It was found in a quarry's
shale piles dumped for school groups to collect from. The site is not available
for individuals to visit and now with new owners, I cannot guarantee group
access. If you have visited the site before, they might let you collect again.

Unidentified fossils filling a mold of an orthocone cephalopod that was
surrounded by a bryozoan. One side shows the bryozoan, the other shows
the peculiar rice-shaped fossils that are reminiscent of fusulinid forams.
From
the Grant Lake Fm., Cincinnatian, Upper Ordovician, Spencer Co., KY.

A brachiopod(?) covered with a reticulated pattern. Any idea which genus it
is?
From the Grant Lake Fm., Cincinnatian, Upper Ordovician, Spencer Co., KY.
(Different locale than #2 and #3.)
