I found these coral fossils in the Lower Cretaceous Weno Formation (or possible Paw Paw Fm), in northern Grayson County in northern Texas. The rock is a silty ironstone with lots of marine shells. The corals are about 5mm across and about 1-1.5mm thick. I think that they might be Microbacia sp. Has anyone found similar corals in the Weno Fm or other areas of similar age? Any idea of species? Does anyone know researchers that are working on Cretaceous corals and would be interested in this find? See: North American Upper Cretaceous Corals of the Genus Micrabacia by Stephenson for descriptions of more recent Micrabacia corals. Thanks for any help. PS How do I move this post to the proper "Fossil ID" forum?
