fifbrindacier Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 Hi, i come back to you again because i tried to figure out what might be items i found in the Senonian of Touraine in France without success. Most of them, i believe are sponges. 1) about 3,5 cm round "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux." (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry) "We only well see with the heart, the essential is invisible for the eyes." In memory of Doren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fifbrindacier Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 2) this one is about 6 cm of length, i don't know if this is a sponge, a coral, a bryozoan,...

fifbrindacier Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 3) a little less than 4 cm of length and about 1,5 cm at the widest : "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

fifbrindacier Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 4) This last one might just be a funny nodule. It is about 6 cm of length and almost 3 of width : "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

fifbrindacier Posted February 5, 2017 Author Share Posted February 5, 2017 Another pic of 4) I thank you in advance for giving me a bit of your time to help me.

abyssunder Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 It could be. All of the presented specimens could be sponges.

fifbrindacier Posted February 7, 2017 Author Share Posted February 7, 2017 Thanks Abyssunder. I had doubts on some, but not on the first one, although a precise identification is not possible because it is too worn. I had doubts on number 2) and 3), but mostly on 4) which seem to be parts of sponges (if they are sponges). "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."
