Bullsnake Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Very nice specimen and prep. That other part (the parallel 'rays') doesn't really look bryozoan to me. Or am I not seeing it right? Edited April 13, 2014 by Bullsnake Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
