I found this up near emmitsburg, Maryland. It's got some strange lines. Is it a plant and if so any ideas as to what type, or am I stuck again with a burrow as I have been so many times before. It's Gettysburg shale (Triassic norian-carnian).

Happy hunting,

Yep, it looks like root silt. I've found lots of it before in the Pocono Group.

 

Plant fossils.
