Aulopora conferta Coral Fossil

 

This fossil is really nice with Aulopora conferta? (Winchell) coral growing on what might be Hexagonaria.(Gürich, 1896). It was found in the Bell Shale of the Traverse Group at Carmeuse Quarry, Rogers City, Michigan, USA. The fossil dates to the middle Devonian Period (Givetian Stage).
