FISH OR SHARK - vomit or stomach contents.
Split nodule. Both positive and negative parts. On the inside there are the scattered remains of what appears to be parts of a fish. There are several possibilities. it could be from a Xenacanthid shark meal or from a large predatory fish such as Megalichthys or Rhizodus. Looks more like vomit than a coprolite. Best example I have seen from Crock Hay.
