Need help identifying what I'm guessing is a Fossilized Crustacean or turtle that I found this week on Yellowstone River.  Any help would be highly appreciated.

Welcome to the Forum. :) 

 

I'm not seeing either here. The two "lobes" are certainly suggestive of something fossiliferous, but this is more likely due to sedimentary weathering.

Sorry, but I am not seeing anything fossil related here.

Looks more like a possible nodule or concretion.

I noticed that too. (Thought it best to not go there though :))
