Hi everyone

 

I recently spied this mazon creek nodule on an online auction site and stuck in a cheeky bid as I thought it looked interesting. 

Listed as "unidentified worm from Mason creek"

Perhaps preservation is too poor for a positive ID however if anyone has any thoughts as to ID please mention. 

Total length of feature around 3cm.

This is likely a poorly preserved Didontogaster.

I do not see any signs of setae or jaw structures so this could also be a trace fossil (worm trail).
