Various lower Cretaceous/Cenomanian marine fossils

[Hapchazzard]

Origin of fossils is a lower Cretaceous (possibly Cenomanian, though I cannot confirm with this much precision) marine site in southeastern Serbia. Some of these I'm completely or fairly sure about the overall phylum, but would appreciate a more precise (genus, or at least family level) taxonomic designation. I include both a broad shot to show the thing's shape and size, but also some shots through a magnifying glass - these can get shaky.

1. Likely coral

2. Coral or sponge

Closeup (Underside) - It's hard to see here, but it's clear that this is an encrusting creature as when I look at it under a magnifying glass I can see a fairly clear line where the biological material wraps around regular stone.

3. Coral

4. Coral

5. Coral, possibly Thamnaestroid?

Hi! They're uploaded via imgur, I'll paste the links right above each one.

Added the links, hopefully they work now, sorry for double posting.

PLEASE DO NOT LINK TO PHOTO SHARING SITES.

 

 

Links can go bad. That can render a topic totally useless.

 

It is much better to post only a few fossils, and post photos directly to the Forum.

Our entire reason for existing is to bring knowledge to people. We like for the content to stay available for future users.

Apologies, I understand, I was not aware of this rule change since I wasn't around here for a fairly long time. I will just reupload the images once I am back on my PC, hopefully I won't hit the 100 MB cap, which was what I feared.

Caps were lifted a while ago. Crop your photos to only show the fossil and no background, and you should be fine.

Got it, I've done as you requested and uploaded the images  . I've also heeded your advice and lowered the number of fossils in the OP to 5 corals I'm the most interested in, to not overwhelm people that come into the thread with a gigantic OP.
