Help with "Formosa Reef" fragment

[Monica]

Hi everyone!

 

I was just looking through some of my fossils yesterday, and I noticed the following item on one of the rocks I collected from "Formosa Reef" in Ontario, Canada back in March.  These rocks are from the Amherstburg Formation and are Lower Devonian in age.  Could this be a trilo-bit?  Or is it something else?  I'll tag @piranha and @Kane to see if they have any ideas.

 

Thanks in advance for your help!

Sorry, it’s a bit too fragmentary for me to make out. Perhaps prep it a bit more? I’m seeing a darker crust/skin to its left, suggesting this is a steinkern. Possibly brach valve or bivalve? It’s not jumping out and screaming trilobitic to me.

Thanks for the input, Kane!  If it doesn't look trilobitic to you, then I'm sure it isn't. 

 

I hope you're keeping safe out west!
