HobbyCollectorWNY Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 (edited) Today I went Orthoceras hunting on the shore of Lake Ontario. I found a rock that clearly has some fossil activity going on but I cannot figure it out. I am unsure if it is just a strangely configured algae fossil (just different than I normally find). P.s. please disregard my bunny pajamas lol Edited October 7, 2017 by HobbyCollectorWNY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 If the bunnies are small enough it could be a remnant of an aulopora colony. I'm not at all confident of it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HobbyCollectorWNY Posted October 8, 2017 Author Share Posted October 8, 2017 So sorry. Forgot to give a size reference. The rock itself is maybe 5 to 5 1/2 inches long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 These might be water worn rocks exposing sections of rugose coral. I can more clearly make out the detail of coral in the piece just behind it. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HobbyCollectorWNY Posted October 9, 2017 Author Share Posted October 9, 2017 Thank you, folks. It's beginning to look like it may be bryzoans, just sort of grouped together differently than the usual bryzoans I find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
