Found some great fossils yesterday. Found some great Mucrospirifers (arkonensis and thedforensis), my first ammonite - though small (1.5cm) and my first Cyrtina and a few things I cannot name. I'm sorry this photo is not better... should have also taken a photo of the underside. I was out hunting with my sister near Rock Glen Ontario and she found it so it's in her posession. Otherwise I would have taken better photos of it. I searched high and low for something similar. We found this on March 27, 2013 in the Ausable river near Rock Glen, Ontario. It appears to be fossilized skin. The underside seems bony with ridges. The closest thing I could find that resembled this texture was the outer flat section of a large trilobite. Any idea what this is?? (about 2 inches wide)
