KimTexan Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I found this a few years ago walking through the countryside near Lake Whitney on what is now called Lake Whitney Ranch in Bosque county off of hwy or FM 56. The unique thing about this one was it was sitting at the base of a large tree in the woods. I guess the roots had pushed it up to the surface. I've got a dozen, maybe 2 dozen or more of numerous species, but I've never got an ID on any of them. This one may be hard to ID, because it has eroded away in places and has lichen growing on it.

KimTexan Posted October 3, 2017 Author Share Posted October 3, 2017 This is for the thickness of it. It's about 3.25-3.5 inches thick and just over 12 inches as it's widest diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWill Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 It sure is worn down alright. You can see that the sutures are gone and only the edge of some septa are showing on the flank without much folding so there is a lot of it gone. Just judging from the size, shape and profile though it is most likely an Eopachydiscus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I'll go along with Bob. You could try removing the matrix from the inner whorls on the one side. Maybe they are better preserved than on the other. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
