Found in the Iola formation, which I can only assume is a very rare find in the formation as I have never seen one of this size in at least 5 years of rockpile hunting. The only id I could think of was maybe Mooreoceras as some Winterset Limestone contains some in a similar size range. It is hard to make out, even I at first thought it was just karst but the present of shell material and a Siphuncle has proven this to be here. I may try and prep it out a bit more one day.
