Paleonet: Mystery Fossils

[Richard Gottfried]

These look like impressions of a conularia, which are thought to be primitive hydrozoa.

Hi Paleonet,

Can anybody help me identify the fossils in the attached photos?  They are from the Cretaceous (Albian) Allaru Mudstone in southwestern Queensland.

They remind me a bit of bryozoans being sheet-like with a  very regular pattern.  They were found with other marine fossils such as bivalves and ammonites.

Thanks for any help that you may be able to provide.

Regards
Paul Blake
