fossilisa Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Yesterday, after a very uneventful couple of hours of searching, I happened upon several fossils in close proximity right as I was about to call it a day. I believe four are horn coral, but would like confirmation, and would also like an ID on the other. One photo shows the four that were similar, and then a few angles of the one in the best condition. There is also one more I believe to be another type of coral. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 Yes, the first ones are solitary, rugose 'horn' corals. 'The one in the best condition' is a mold of the calyx of one showing the arrangement of the septa, formed after the fossil coral itself has eroded away. The last one seems to be a colonial tabulate coral mold. Favosites sp. or from that family. 1 2 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
