Another Devonic Id Please!


MOROPUS

Recommended Posts

Well, there is another strange fossil to id, from the devonic slates of the Pirinees Range.It looks a lot to some kind of branched "sponge".This rocks are all covered with crinoid parts, brachiopods (spiriferids), and some odontochile and their relatives trilobs (I will post some lately).

But, what is this branched thing? post-62-1198884550_thumb.jpgpost-62-1198884564_thumb.jpgpost-62-1198884579_thumb.jpgpost-62-1198884594_thumb.jpg

nice little slab you have there, very aesthetically pleasing :D;)

I think you have a type of Bryazoan, looks similar to fenestella but im not sure.

hope this helps...

The branched thing looks like a cross section of a columnal of pentacrinites, but I don't remember their range. Though, it could be some other crinoid/blastoid/cystoid columnal.

EDIT: Regarding the other, some kind of negative of an internal mold. Without any structure, it would be hard to name. It could be some artifact of lithification. Sorry I couldn't help; not familiar with the geology of that area.
