Fruitbat Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I don't know about a whale vertebra. It looks an awful lot like an echinoid (sea urchin) to me! -Joe Illigitimati non carborundum Fruitbat's PDF Library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doraaman Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 Whale vertebrae found in 20' in the ocean. Sea urchin was a random spotting in 130' fresh water spring/cave, I was super excited to find such a small object in a big dark room (with help of flash lights) 21 minutes ago, Fruitbat said: I don't know about a whale vertebra.

Al Dente Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Your echinoid looks like Oligopygus. If you photograph the other side we might be able to figure out the species. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrieder79 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I've heard of megs coming out of florida caves as well. Keep your eyes peeled! Luck is the most important skill of a fossil diver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
