minnbuckeye Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Coral, maybe hexogonaria???? upper left picture seems to show coralites similar to this species. Knowing the location ang geology of the area might help in a diagnosis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBSERVEhistory199 Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 I found it in sauble Beach. It was out in the deeper water. Heres are some picks of the back of the rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnbuckeye Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Leaning towards a rugosa coral from those pictures. Am I seeing hexagonal pattern on that first view shown?? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 Tabulate coral (the most recent image). My guess given the stated location is that these are likely Devonian in age. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OBSERVEhistory199 Posted June 7, 2021 Author Share Posted June 7, 2021 Definitely looks Rugosa from some of the images. Thanks everyone! I'm sort of a newbie to this! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FossilDAWG Posted June 7, 2021 Share Posted June 7, 2021 The larger fossil is a solitary rugosan coral. A tabulate coral, perhaps a favositid, is also visible in the top left hand side of the first photo. Don 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
