I will give it to you - Lobster or crab fragment it is! Well done!

Here's the next one!


It's from the U.K.

Is it an apticus?

Its a bivalve I'm guessing
hmm from Bracklesham???

Any part of an arthropod?

Kosmos is right, but I need something more specific

so its part of a trilobite, how specific do you want macro?

That'll do I think, it's part of the soft-tissue outer edge of a cephalon
