Winger Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 I am new to this group and would appreciate any help provided in identifying this fossil. All I know is that it is a coral; I found it in the Wainfleet, ON area decades ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 This looks like a nicely preserved rugose coral.

FossilNerd Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Agreed. A solitary rugose “horn” coral. Someone more familiar with the area it was found in may be able to provide further insight. 1 The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it. -Neil deGrasse Tyson Everyone you will ever meet knows something you don't. -Bill Nye (The Science Guy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
