Odd Rocks Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 You can’t see the detail on the mouth, or the rounded projections on the end? I’ll keep running it through the sonic cleaner and get better close-up detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Well, I guess I can see what you're suggesting here. It's very faint though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 So what do you think it is? You mentioned 3 different types of fossils in the tags, but I don't really recognize any of them here clearly.

Odd Rocks Posted July 16 Author Share Posted July 16 I think it’s a paracrinoid, or maybe tabulate coral. I’ll get more of that red crust off it and repost, maybe take some pics with the microscope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westcoast Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 There is something in there, in the third from last image, that looks somewhat like a syringopora-type coral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
