A find at Tully NY the other day was bizarre compared with the usual stuff. Looks like a fish scale to my eye. 
 

Image was first hit on Google for images of “Devonian fish scales”. Example D and E look similar.

Another suggestion, could it be a spiny brach? In the pic I've pointed to some features that may be spines in the rock.
