Oxytropidoceras Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Looks like the impression of part of the exterior of a valve of a pelecypod. Edited April 6, 2021 by Oxytropidoceras fine-tuned text 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RescueMJ Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I agree. The matrix appears to be ancient sand with partial shell impression. It’s in good shape (impression is not eroded much). Good color as well. Nice find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plantguy Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) Welcome to the forum! Yep as the others have said!..looks like a fragment of an impression of one of the cockle shells, maybe something like this Trachycardium from inland Sarasota County. You can see the ribbing and chevron patterns like yours especially well in the middle photo (side view). Very nice find in matrix!
