I recently purchased this nodule (about 5cm in length) with a Bothrodendron twig. 

There was also the cup shaped inclusion

 

Any ideas?

I think you have it correctly identified already.

Is the cup shaped object part of the Bothrodendron?

I do not see a convincing attachment or features that would be diagnostic enough in another way. You should wait for the real experts to weigh in though.

I would say no. It looks like it is on a different layer of the concretion.

Do you know where the nodule came from?

Nice acquisition. That's Steve's old stomping grounds. @Terry Dactyll 

A sharper image might provide a clue...I saw it over on the sale site and the image there is clearer..I cant decide if its a fragment of  a Lepidodendron stem with leaves or something else. The one half seems to have thin columnal/rectangular shaped fragments.

 

Here are links in Steve's gallery for Lepidodendron and Asterophyllites. maybe you can compare to it. 

Regards, Chris
