Hi all,

I'm curious about this piece of wood I found with some interesting, round nodules on the surface. Could it be some species of lycopod?

 

About 3/4 inch in length. Found in Doña Ana county, New Mexico. Camp Rice formation.

 

Thanks for any suggestions!

No. I don't know what it is though.

Doesn't seem to show the regularity of a lycopod. The lumpiness may be the result of botryoidal crystal growth.

 

 

Cheers.

It looks geological, to me, maybe a speleothem.
