Lavernock Bone ID

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I found this at Lavernock today. 

I think it's bone but am not sure what it's from.

Doesn't really look like a typical ichthyosaur bone.

Any Id suggestions would be much appreciated.

The colouration somewhat suggests it came out of the local triassic bone bed.

Hand for size reference.

Are you sure it’s fossilised?

relatively certain, but as always not 100% sure. Looks like something out of the bone bed.
