Lone Hunter Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Awhile back @Rockwood posted something similar to this and was given the ID Serpulid Reef, which I had never heard of until then. Would that be what this is? This is from creek in Eagle Ford, what's most curious is how the wad of spaghetti perfectly comes together at the mouth(?)end. Pictures I've seen of these reefs show worms poking out out in every direction.@erose 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 (edited) It looks like a 'rolling stone' of tube worms, a vermetulith (polychaete tube worms) agregate or serpulith. 46_Zuschin_&_Gebhardt_2009.pdf Edited April 4, 2022 by abyssunder 3 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

The distinction may be the organization around a possible core. Not coquina, in my thinking. 1 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

Lone Hunter pointed out that I had missed that part, but I've had so much on my mind lately that I hadn't gotten back to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
