Looking through all the Kope Formation material I did find over 15 Cornulites tubes. I will post images of the smaller ones soon.
The jaw appears to be broken off at both ends. Image taken with microscope set to 40x.

Kope Formation Scolecodont
Okay, I have been a little off on the scoledont identifications recently but this one I am pretty sure of. It is the only jet black fossil I found have viewing tablespoon after tablespoon of gravel. It is from the Kope Formation of Carroll County, Kentucky. This creature existed in the Ordovician Period.
