    Yes, you are correct @a-trilobite are Crinoid stems. This rock is full of them so I’m hoping to uncover a complete Crinoid still intact (stem, calyx, arms and pinnules).

      Aren’t all the long straight ones crinoids, or are they gastropods?

    Hard like a rock, heavy like a rock, probably a rock. I can’t find anything similar online, resembles a large bone or vertebrate IMO… any help would be appreciated.

      looks like a septarian nodule. Mostly you will find pictures of them cut and polished, but the outside often looks like this.

      Greetings @a-trilobite and @david-todd ! Regarding this specimen, I do not believe this is a rib cage of any sort. it could be a result of erosion as you mention or at best some kind of burrows. That’s the best I can do for now. If there was someone on here who specialized in ichnofossils they could help determine an ID.

    Top specimen of first pic looks like a Crinoid stem impression, curving around from bottom middle of the rock to the top left. Not sure about the impression on the cracked specimen. If it’s not made from water I would love to know what it is because I have a huge rock that looks very similar. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. I assume the…[Read more]

    Hi Chloe, thanks for the information. Check out this link if it works and scroll down to “Theory 2” if you have a minute.

    Possibly enteropneust (acorn worm)?? I just recently read an article about them. There are some theory’s out there that suggest these worms (if they are in fact acorn worms) are what eventually led to the human species… interesting for sure but no scientific proof
