Re: Can you identify these fossils species?
Welcome to the forum, Fossilia! The majority of your fossils appear mid-Cretaceous in age. The gastropods on the 4th photograph are usually referred to as 'Tylostoma'. Your last pic shows a hexacoral: Aspidiscus.

The first one is supposedly Exogyra sp. – an extinct oister.
The irregular sea-urchin could be Toxaster and the regular one a representative
of the Cidaridae-family.
