paleonet Info re problematica: Conularia

[Gary Holloway <holloway_gary@xxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings,
Sorry to be a pest. I am a teacher in Australia (near
Sydney)and I have found some rather nice specimens of
conularia.
When I do a search re conularia I get some
illustrations of specimens and various descriptive
understandings from "jellyfish" to "coral".
Would someone be able to assist with some info /
references on web to the latest thinking on these
creatures.
The ones that I found are likely to be from Permian
strata (I am presently having this checked) and I
should have some pics available soon if anyone is
interested. The specimens are all three dimensional
and range in size from about 1/4" diam and 3" long to
about 1.5" diam and 8" long. There were 3 of us
collecting in a roadside rock dump and we found about
20 specimens in 30 minutes...all fully three
dimensional. Brilliant stuff.
regards
Gary
