Fig. 17. Patsyella dentata (Mt. Brown Limestone, Miocene). An example of a polyzoa or bryozoan (minute animals which form colonies, usually encrusting on rocks or shells of other animals but sometimes filamentous and branching. The peculiar, barnacle-like animals inhabit protective limey cases, common as fossils)
