Fossildude19 Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Welcome to the Forum. This is a suggestively shaped/water worn rock. Keep looking, though.

ynot Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 Welcome to TFF! I agree, neat looking rock - but not a fossil. 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

Thanks John, unfortunately I’ll have to be in the neat shaped rock camp, though it’s unlike any rock I’ve seen out there. I probably would have picked it up too!

abyssunder Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 What caught my eyes are the nice meandering borings visible on the surface, probably made by worms (so they might be close to Maeandropolydora isp. and Caulostrepsis isp.), and the pretty encrusting bryozoans. It's clear that the specimen was a long time in marine environment.
