jwalker Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I find these in the beach in South Carolina. Typically they are dark in color ranging from brown to black and are about 2.5 cm in length. I’ve been told that they are fossilized swim bladders but perhaps they are bone. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fin Lover Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 The top two appear to still have shell remnants on them. Maybe open clam shells that got filled with matrix? See what others say. 3 Fin Lover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Agreed, they must have been buried before the ligaments holding them together were broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
