Location Madagascar?   Cleoniceras

 

No idea of location. Got it at a rock shop so assumed it was Morocco. Could be Madagascar. No provenance, unfortunately.  Cleoniceras seems a likely possibility. Thanks!

Did you find this yourself?  If so, what formation is it from?

Yep! My first Crab Carapace. It's from the Corsicana. Crab Carapce in the Corsicana....correct.

I spaced out on Tooth Tuesday apparently, so on to Weird Wednesday! 

It's not a super great example, but it's the only one I've ever found and it was south of Austin TX....in a place that was a bit of a surprise to find it in! 
Heteromorph ammonites are just weird all the way around and are fairly uncommon, so I was super excited to find one of these: 

Cretaceous Heteromorph Ammonite Idiohamites varians
