Sally VanDereedt started the topic Oyster or Bony Fish From Aurora? in the forum What Is It? 4 years, 4 months ago
4 years, 4 months ago4 years, 4 months agoThis specimen is from the Aurora matrix. To this complete amateur it looks like it might be an oyster shell from near the hinge. However, I have seen other fossils that seem to indicate it could be from a bony fish. I’d appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

Hi, @sally-vandereedt – That is a scleractinian coral so you can include Class Anthozoa > Order Scleractinia to your classification. You can maybe narrow it down further using the Neogene Atlas: https://neogeneatlas.net/species/
You can use Macrostrat to zoom into the collecting locality to get some more information on the geologic…[Read more]

4 years, 4 months ago4 years, 4 months agoThis sample is quite bumpy and irregular, not at all smooth. I am not certain what type of coral this might be. If, in fact, it even is a coral.

Hi, Sally – not familiar with this provenance, but it’s very likely a piece of coral. Most coral broken from its framework is bumpy, irregular and sharp; it gets smoothed out by movement along the bottom by currents.

Hi, @sally-vandereedt – you can use macrostrat to get a better idea of the geologic context: https://macrostrat.org/map/#/z=6.9/x=-78.4543/y=33.7370/bedrock/lines/
I’m afraid it’s unlikely we could figure out a more detailed classification on this specimen!

4 years, 4 months ago4 years, 4 months agoI’ve compared my sample to an oyster fossil published on the North Carolina Fossil Club web site. I am not certain it is the same, but it seems very similar at the least.
