Fruzze Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) I found this one together with some bivalves. Its an area where you can find fossils from the emsian era. Any ideas on what it is? Found it in Thanville, Belgium. Already a little known place for searching fossils from the devonian epoch.

TqB Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 It's a solitary rugose coral. Appears to be an internal mould of the calyx, the calcite skeleton having dissolved away. 2 3 Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Yes, a nice little rugose coral mold. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kmiecik Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 Also known as "horn coral". 1 Mark. Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanville is Lower Devonian: Eimsian growing old is mandatory but growing up is optional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruzze Posted April 17, 2023 Author Share Posted April 17, 2023 Thank you very much guys! Since I've had such great response, I was wondering what my other finds could be since I haven't found it on the internet yet! It's all from the same place that one day in Thanville. 1st: the print is about 3-4cms in length 2nd: about 2-3mms 3rd: about 2cms in width and 1,5 cm in height.

Ludwigia Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Looks like you were poking around at the railroad tracks, right? Probably Ctenocrinus sp. imprints and columnals.

Fruzze Posted May 7, 2023 Author Share Posted May 7, 2023 Yes thats correct I went walking with a friend in Couvin yesterday, near an old limestone/shale quarry (de Lion) and we cracked open some interesting rocks we found. I was wondering what species we may have spotted here.. I have some photos. You guys have any idea? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
