Rockwood Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I'm not positive, but my feeling is that it is a crinoid holdfast. A structure that serves as a foot/anchorage for the starfish relatives. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myrmica Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Yes. Given the environment of formation, an insect would be unlikely. I would expect something marine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
