Perhaps more turtle-like?

How about part of the carapace of a decapod, something similar to hoploparia?

Looks crustacean-ish

It's definitely a decapod crustacean. It looks like a Linuparus to me. What formation was this found in?

It's Linuparus grimmeri(shrimp), Cretaceous. The one I found is from the Santonian East Texas. Nice find.

Looks like Linuparas that I have collected from the Britton Formation in the DFW area. BTW, JoLynn, happy belated birthday from Saturday.

Thank you.  I am just getting back on here after years of doing other stuff.
