Bits and pieces in this rock. Anything identifiable?

Recommended Posts

Found another # plate full of little bits and pieces, do you see anything identifiable?  Photos show both sides, found on the Whitewater River in Southeast Indiana.

Agreed. 

And a rhynchonellid, Hiscobeccus, i think. :)

Very nice pieces.

A branching tabulate coral and productid brachiopods, methinks. :)

One can start to build up a mini,partial ancient ecosystem of the area. 

Of 443 to 451 odd million years ago!

Yes, exactly.  when I'm fishing I think about it, and it's a wowza moment!  I pick up alot of horn coral, and seems like every time the river floods it either scours the gravel bars to reveal what is underneath, or deposits new surprises.  I love to learn and you all on this forum have helped me immensely and I appreciate it so much! <3
