Fossil? Funny rock?

Hi everyone! 

 

What about this one? It was found in a well-known fossil site, an old cretaceous sea, in central Spain (Maranchón, Guadalajara, Spain). I would say the texture suggests a living creature of some kind. Too bad it would be a small fragment.

It does look like something from that picture.

But the fact that it is wet does not help, it makes it harder to see what is going on in some places on the rock.

Not for me, either. :( 

 

Judging from the one picture we have here (so far), this looks like the cross section of a bivalve. Of course, that is just a guess based on the image alone; I'm not familiar with the fauna from your formation.

They remind me of rudists. :)
