FOSSILS OF ARKANSAS





 
Paraster variabilis echinoid from an Arkadelphia ravine.



Snake Vert

This a modern snake vert, not a fossil but still really cool to me.
 

Just got an ID. It is a neck vert from the elasmosaurid. It was the largest and most advanced of the long-necked plesiosaurs. It is the base of the neutral canal, where the nutritive formaminae are visible.
