chung001 Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Corals Fossil found in a base camo when I climbed mountain at an elevation of 3200 metres, to ID~ The corals looks like Liangshanophyllum or waagenophyllum but not quick match the character of Tetracoralla~ Also some Mollusks, maybe Amphineura?

FossilDAWG Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 First, welcome to the Forum! These fossils are fusulinids, which are a type of Foraminifera, as other posters already suggested. Fusulinids are especially abundant in some Upper Paleozoic marine limestones, where they can be useful as markers of biological zones that have great biostratigraphic value.

chung001 Posted October 16, 2020 Author Share Posted October 16, 2020 thank you guys, excuse me for my mistake, they are not corals. But for the two other pic, does my guess (Amphineura) correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
