David Cothran Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 In a typical Permian (I’m fairly sure) marine trash slab with brachiopods and bryozoans. I don’t have a good scale card handy, but the last image shows the slab with a metric ruler. The specimen in the first image is visible at the top of the slab and it is representative size, ie. 0.8-1cm width/diameter and 2-5cm length. Thanks for any help - I’m very curious about this one.

David Cothran Posted May 12, 2022 Author Share Posted May 12, 2022 Now that I actually look a the ruler a little better, they are a little smaller than my estimate above. Something like 0.5-0.8cm width/diameter by 1-3cm length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 This looks like a cross section through a bryozoan. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

David Cothran Posted May 12, 2022 Author Share Posted May 12, 2022 Thanks! That’s probably right - I’m not familiar with Bryozoa of this kind. I think of them as looking like nets. I’ll have to do some more reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
