I found what I assume to be a fossil or trace fossil, but I have no idea what it is. Found this on a bed of other rocks on the bank of a creek in south-central Kentucky. I'm sorry the measurements are in imperial, I could not find a metric ruler.

I wish i knew more, I wish I had found it.  I am thinking it is a lepiodendron  or the stigmaria (root structure) but not the species that I mostly see,  the other fossil it resembles is impression of a pine cone.
