Fossils from Richmond

Fossils from Richmond belong to two principal formations; The Allaru Mudstone and the Toolebuc formation dominated by the Bivalve Inoceramus sutherlandi, which can be found in abundance in the collecting quarry at Richmond. The vertebrate fauna is dominated by thin elongate scales of a fish called Richmondichthys sweeti . The pictures above show an unknown fish scale, a partial fish fin, a turtle skull and the Bivalve Inoceramus sutherlandi.
