Peat Burns Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Looks like it might be a chunk of tabulate coral (colonial). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockwood Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I suspect the stratigraphy (age of the rocks in that area) may eliminate the Seclarictinian option, but I'm not sure there is enough evidence available to distinguish between a portion of a Tabulate and a Rugose which also have some fairly well developed tabulae in places. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peat Burns Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 It's either a cross section of a rugose showing dissepiments or a longitudinal section of a tabulate... I'm leaning toward the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
