Lori26 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Another one I hoped to get some clarity on. Found on the beach in Staten Island, N.Y. Maybe honeycomb fossil but if anyone is familiar with this, I'd love to learn more. Thanks again! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMP Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Looks like a coral to me A lot of the fossils on Staten Island are actually transported from elsewhere in Upstate New York/North Jersey. My bet is this comes from somewhere up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TqB Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 I suspect this is a modern scleractinian coral, quite likely dropped by someone (an aquarium discard for example). 2 1 Tarquin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
