rideswithchrist Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I think it was found in Canyon Lake TX- it should be limestone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyc Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Maybe a shell stuck in limestone? Does not look like a claw to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jikohr Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Cool find! It appears to be the interior mold of an oyster (probably texigryphaea or a close relative). At least that's my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordTrilobite Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Definitely not a claw or tooth. It lacks the necessary surface structure details like grooves on a claw or enamel on a tooth. Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranzBernhard Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 I am wondering, if it might be the internal cast of a rudist: From Schuhmann & Steuber (1997). Please select one... . Franz Bernhard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rideswithchrist Posted July 30, 2019 Author Share Posted July 30, 2019 That is what I was thinking as we searched. The texture also looked very different than the other things we looked up. 9 hours ago, LordTrilobite said: Definitely not a claw or tooth.
