Paleonet: [EXTERN] unknown fossil

[Michael Knappertsbusch]

It reminds me somewhat to a fragment of a holothurian sklerite, but it is a bit too big for it.

Alternatively maybe a fragment from a benthic calcareous algae ??


Cheers

Michael

Dear Paleonetters

Does anyone have an idea what this tiny fossil might be?
