Unknown ballagan formation fossils???

Unknown fossils, they were found in the ballagan formation in southern Scotland, it is in mudstone, it shows fine laminations on the side.

I do not think they are flute casts as they seam to have something infilling them such as the "creature"

They will be carboniferous.

I think they are ichnofossils or trace fossils (they are one and the same). In this case the remains of the burrows of some kind of burrowing creatures.


My armour is like tenfold shields, my teeth are
swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail
is a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my
breath death!
