ziggycardon Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I am affraid we will need more than just one photo to be of assistance. Some information regarding the exact location of where it was found, what age the formation is where this was found, some more pictures from different angles, a picture with a ruler as scale would be very helpfull to get some ID's on this pic.

Fossildude19 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 North Alabama is kind of a big area. If you could narrow it down to county, that would be helpful. Plus a few more pictures of the item from a bit farther away, with a ruler or tape measure for scale would be helpful as well. Right now, I am leaning towards some sort of fish material, but that is a guess at the moment.

Kane Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 I'm with Tim on this having a fish vibe. Even the middle suture seems reminiscent of a sensory canal. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kane Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 If memory serves, Huntsville has a lot of marine Carboniferous limestones, so that may help narrow this piece down a bit. ...How to Philosophize with a Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
