Cleaning devonian rocks I've found this. It could be a fish bone or maybe orthoceras? Is a small fragment.

 

 

What do you think?

Regards.

Hi Juan, i don't think that's an orthoceras. But to be sure, we need photos of the top of it.

Regerds,.

It could be part of the body chamber. Odds are if it were fish bone or phragmocone with internal structure preserved it would already be posted. Just the same, it may be helpful.

I agree that this looks like a chamber of an orthocone cephalopod.  
 

I'm not seeing the texture you normally see on Devonian fish armor. :unsure:
