Crinoid stem
-
some type of coral or sponge…?
-
@leonardo-miranda possibly, but the lines are going vertically and straight so I wouldn’t think so
-
@a-trilobite true, but it is for that reason too that l don’t think it looks much like a crinoid stem either. I’m thinking now that it may be a fibrous plant stem
-
@leonardo-miranda you can see that there are horizontal lines as well going across the vertical ones that you see in crinoid stems not in plant stems.
-
@a-trilobite l feel that the horizontals are too unevenly spaced, and crinoid segments were very tidy and orderly in arrangement, not some that were much thicker than others….
-
@leonardo-miranda probably something to do with its preservation. Worn horizontal lines are a more promising sign of a crinoid stem than none at all. If it was a plant stem it wouldn’t have any horizontal lines at all.
