tstark Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I have these two pieces that I can seem to id so I found this awesome forum and figure this is is the best place to start. So what information I do have is that this chucks of matrix came from Morocco and kind of look like gill bones? Please let me know what you think.

Fossildude19 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 They look to me like Hypural bones. Could you take a picture looking directly at the areas where the arrows are? I'm looking for a view from that side to see if it looks like a vertebra there.

abyssunder Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Hypural bones, no doubt, possibly Enchodus. 1 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

Fossildude19 Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 I'd go with that - Enchodus hypural. Nice ones.
