Kaiju Slayer333 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Another fossil from my collection. This fossil I don’t really know exactly what it is but my guess is a sea urchin spine. What’s yours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abyssunder Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 You are correct.

Tidgy's Dad Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 This is also Moroccan I think. Does it have a ridge running along the length of the spine anywhere, or is the spine smooth? Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herb Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 You are correct,something like this.

jpc Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Yes, sea urchin spine. That pattern you see on the right in your original post is typical of the base of an urchin spine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
