Andrew Young sent us photos of a beautiful Roachoid wing from one of our Danville field trips in 2024. It opened late this spring (2025) after about 30 cycles. Danville concretions are hard and can take a long time top open.

We are slowly adding animals to the list of fossils from this locality, as this represents at least the second insect fossil found.

Thanks for sharing, Andrew!
