Welcome to Field Adventures in Paleontology! Let me take you on a personal tour of some of the digs I've gone on in recent years, both scientific excavations and personal collecting trips, and show you some of the fossils that are found there. Click on the green location on the map that you'd like to visit: All literary and photographic work contained in this website, except the few Alaska photos credited to Ed Kazzimir, is my own. My purpose in creating the site is to share my enthusiasm and knowledge of paleontology with anyone who is interested. Therefore, if you find information and/or photos which you would like to use in a work of your own, please feel free; my only stipulation is that they not be reproduced in a for-profit published work. If you do use them, a simple line crediting Lynne M. Clos as the source would be appreciated. Field Adventures in Paleontology check out my new book!

INDEX FOSSILS

Index fossils are commonly found, widely distributed fossils that are limited in time span. They help in dating other fossils found in the same sedimentary layer. For example, if you find a fossil from an unknown era near a fossil from a known time, you can assume that the two species were from about the same time.
Examples of index fossils include:
  • Ammonites were common during the Mesozoic Era (245 to 65 mya), They were not found after the Cretaceous period, as they went extinct during the K-T extinction (65 mya).
  • Brachiopods (mollusk-like marine animals) appeared during the Cambrian (540 to 500 mya); some examples still survive.
  • Graptolites (widespread colonial marine hemichordates) that lived from the Cambrian period (roughly 540 to 505 million years ago) to the early to mid-Carboniferous (360 to 320 million years ago).

Wilson New York State provides a rich and varied assemblage of fossil-bearing deposits which have drawn the attention of both professional and amateur paleontologists for over 100 years. The strata representing the Devonian Period are especially well represented. Fossiliferous Ordivician and Silurian strata, and, to a lesser extent, Upper Cambrian strata, are also present in the State. In addition, New York State contains numerous deposits which were lain down at the close of the last Pleistocene glaciation, many containing plant and animal fossils.

TRACE FOSSILS

Trace fossils (ichnofossils) record the movements and behaviors of the dinosaurs. There are many types of trace fossils. Even the lack of trace fossils can yield information; the lack of tail-furrow fossils indicates an erect tail stance for dinosaurs that were previously believed to have dragged their tails.
  • Trackways (sets of footprints) Dinosaur tracks , usually made in mud or fine sand, have been found at over 1500 sites , including quarries, coal mines , riverbeds, deserts, and mountains. There are so many of these fossils because each dinosaur made many tracks (but had only one skeleton) and because tracks fossilize well. Ichnotaxia (fossil footprints) have yielded information about:
    • Speed and length of stride
    • whether they walked on two or four legs
    • the bone structure of the foot
    • stalking behavior (a carnivore hunting a herd of herbivores)
    • the existence of dinosaur herds and stampedes
    • how the tail is carried (no tail tracks have been found, so tails were probably held erect)

Welcome to PTRM!
Who Are We?
The Pioneer Trails Regional Museum is owned and operated by the Bowman County Historical and Genealogical Society. Our purpose is to preserve and research the history within a 100 mile radius of Bowman North Dakota. We endeavor to tell as complete a story as possible through the use of text and artifacts. Our goal is to become a research center in the fields of Paleontology, Archaeology, Anthropology, Botany, Genealogy, Local History and Astronomy. We also would like to act as a showcase for local artists in all areas of the arts. Our aim is to have programs for all ages and interests.
Where Are We?
The Pioneer Trails Regional Museum is located at 12 First Ave. NE in Bowman, North Dakota. Bowman is located at the confluence of two major highways, US 85 and US 12. We are in the extreme southwestern corner of North Dakota, approximately 16 miles from South Dakota, and 30 miles from Montana. * click on above image to view a more detailed map *

Southern Fossils - Paleontology at Otago
By R. Ewan Fordyce
New Zealand has a rich and distinctive record of Cenozoic, Mesozoic and Paleozoic fossils. Fossils from the Paleozoic and much of the Mesozoic - the Triassic and Jurassic - indicate links with Gondwana and other more-ancient global geographies. Younger fossils, from the Cretaceous and Cenozoic, record the gradual development of New Zealand's distinctive modern biota. This website will feature some of the more-distinctive fossils studied by Department staff, and some of the more significant fossils from southern New Zealand. The staff at the University of Otago have had a long involvement with New Zealand fossils. Most focus has been on material from southern regions. The extensive fossil collection resulting from this work is housed in the
