PSchleis Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Thanks to you guys, I think I recognize an endocast/steinkern when I see one. But if I'm right and this is one, I can't for the life of me figure out what would have made this kind of impression. Does this form look familiar to anyone? At first I thought it looked a lot like the rim of a queen helmet shell, but there isn't an opening there to fill with anything that would form a fossil. Found on Myrtle Beach. Thanks! --Paula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 It is reminiscent of a partial cast of an ammonite chamber. Perhaps Mesozoic sediments from offshore dredging ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wightlight Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Maybe a burrow cast of some sort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plax Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 it could be what Rockwood says. I have a found a couple of nice Sphenodiscus in the Myrtle Beach area in the Peedee. Once they are eroded out of or deposited on the beach they would get worn very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
