The unidentified field is used to record stations where a fossil is clearly seen, but cannot be identified by the inventory team. The sea urchin spine seen at the same station in this photo should be inventoried under the Notes field as there is not a pre-set category for it on the form.
Photos should be taken of unidentified fossils whenever possible, to be used outside of the cave to help identify it with outside assistance.
