Badia Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Supposed to be from the Cretaceous, found in Mota del Cuevo (Spain). I think it may be a jellyfish... on a shell... Note the soft-looking round brownish double structure on the center. Between the two structures it looks transparent white. Underneath there is a shell. On top there is a stick-structure with another round structure of a different kind I think. What is it? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caldigger Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I'm not sure jellies fossilize in 3D as they are mostly water to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badia Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) Hi! I have checked with an expert on fossilized jellyfish and this is not a fossilized jellyfish, you were right, thank you! However, I would like to pose another ID for it... in case it is a fossil, could it be a foraminifera? Maybe a group of orbitolites? Please take a look at the new files as requested. Thank you!
