I would be very grateful for any help regarding ids of these tiny oddments found in a matrix piece from the Early Devonian Helderberg Group, Kalkberg Formation of the Rickard Hill Road cut, Schoharie, New York state. The piece contains four really nice brachiopods, the horn coral Enterolasma strictum and a lot of tiny crinoid ossicles. Perhaps, in strict alphabetical order, @Darktooth @Fossildude19 @Jeffrey P@Misha or @Nautiloid might be able to throw some light on them? Thank you. This first one seems to be encrusting along the growth lines of large, flat specimen of Discomyorths oblata. Could it be a cornulitid of some sort? About 2.5mm long. This first picture seems to show it as pointy, but if you look, the wider end is actually sort of horseshoe shaped ans seems to have an opening infilled with sediment. It seems to show growth lines. The second specimen I thoght might be a tentaculitid, but now I'm leaning towards a gastropod? Note the very fine striations. About 3mm. What about these, please? Some are clearly stemmed echinoderm ossicles, but is that a tiny lingulid. Are there ostracods? These are all only a millimetre or two across. These last two may be burrows? A white one: And a darker one: Finally, tis nice to know they had McDonalds in New York back in the Early Devonian. Thanks to everyone for looking and for any assistance.

I was flipping through some material from Rickard Hill road in Schoharie when I noticed this brachiopod. I have never seen a brachiopod with an "elongated" part like this although I am certainly no expert in brachiopods. Looking at it under a microscope, it seems to be one whole organism. I'm not completely sure though. This one definitely has me puzzled and any help will be appreciated!
