Fossil discoveries


Fossils of extinct species have been found in the Catskill Formation of the Red Hill Shale, dating to the upper Devonian (365 to 363 million years ago); these species incorporate "Hyner" in their genus names: Hyneria, a predatory lobe-finned fish, and Hynerpeton, an early four-limbed vertebrate that lived in the rivers and ponds.[3]
