Fossildude19 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Looks like an internal mold of a brachiopod. Not sure there is enough detail in the pic to be sure of what kind. Also, please, ... when posting in the ID section,... if you could tell us where it was found, (county,town) and the size of the specimen, that info would help us to be able to narrow down an ID for you.

Crinoid Queen Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 (edited) My first thought was gastropod but probably brachiopod?? Yes we need a little more info please. -CQ Edited October 20, 2012 by Crinoid Queen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shavedhead Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Oh, sorry about that, of course. I found it in Toronto. As i get it's Georgian Bay formation. Does this photo better? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crinoid Queen Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 http://www.thefossilforum.com/index.php/topic/31502-ordovician-fossils-in-southern-ontario/ This area? I am more inclined to think gastropod the only brachs I saw where wingtip ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobWill Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Maybe a side view will help, and the size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 I'm afraid my vote would have to be for just a stone. It seems like an internal mold would be surrounded by a void where the shell was in this situation, and anything else seems like it would have clearer details of growth lines or a split between the valves.
