Dicranurus Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I would like to know what this is? One eBay seller from Spain send it as a gift, but nothing information. I think it is a coral and probably from Morocco but I'm not sure. Could this be for example devonian Pachyphyllum woodmani?

Guest solius symbiosus Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Those bumps look like mamelons on a stromatoporoid??? But, it is kind of hard to tell in the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOROPUS Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 It`s hard to say from the pic; try to do a better one, and perhaps an I can try ID it. There are a lot of Mesozoic corals quite similar to this structures (Heliastrea,Hydnopora...), and quite a few Paleozoic ones in Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
