LordTrilobite Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 It's quite hard to tell what we're looking at with such a small photo. It would also be really useful to know what it came from to properly ID it. But from that small photo it looks like some kind of plant material maybe?

LndPir8 Posted November 12, 2015 Author Share Posted November 12, 2015 Thank you to all who help me figure out what this is. Also, this was found in Tell City Indiana. 4 miles north of the Ohio River. If that helps at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) Looks like the branch of a Lepidodendron or some other lycopsid.

Plantguy Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Nice find! Am curious---How big is that rock? Looks like it may also show an additional branch hiding there? A little prying/prep work might expose it. Thanks for showing us. Regards, Chris 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep thats a good sized beauty and it looks like it must have been a lot of fun lugging that home. Congrats. Regards, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
