Found in lower Jurrasic, Liassic Clays at Seatown near Lyme Regis, Dorset, England. In Lower Liassic Clays, Jurassic rocks, close to Belemnite beds. Curved shape and heavy for size, made me wonder if it could be a rib fragment from Ichthysaur. Could just be limestone / Pyrite nodule, but I don't have enough expertise to know..Thanks. Greg.

I have found similar items in the Green Ammonite Mudstone at this location. 

I think they are nodules of some ilk, though I suppose they could conceivably be burrows.
