dinosaur man Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Hi is this a Cephalopod or a Rugose coral it’s from the Onondaga formation. I have been told that it could be a a Cephalopod by one person and Rugose coral by another. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FossilDAWG Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 It's a Mysteriosus invisibilensis. It's a common species, but rarely collected because no-one can see it. Don 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misha Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Definitely looks more like a solitary rugose coral than a cephalopod 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
