PAJim Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Last minutes trip to the lake today... Found a trilo partial (in my other topic) and the typical crinoid stuff. This is eastern PA Devonian material. These are some other things I would like some help on... This "thing" looks like a walnut... I assume some kind of plant life? I'm thinking this a crinoid stem... I liked how it's displayed in the rock And I see this pattern a lot... is it crinoid related as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
izak_ Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 The last one is probably a bryozoan, and I can't help with anything else. Cool finds Izak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 (edited) Your first picture looks like the internal mold of a bivalve. Your second picture is a not a crinoid stem, but looks to be infilled burrow. I see no indication of individual columnals, which would indicate crinoid. The last one is indeed a bryozoan, probably a fensetrate bryozoan like Fenestella sp.

Shamalama Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Tim is right on all three ID's. The Bryozoan impression is particularly nice. -Dave __________________________________________________ Geologists on the whole are inconsistent drivers.
