Are there any experts on here that can tell if this is a fossil, and if not what causes such a stone to be be formed in this way?

Looks like it could be a 'brachiopod' fossil.

that's not a fossil, it's a queen wasp egg, and it's as old as the joke about my dad killing them for a living......

Yeah it's a brachiopod or bivalve.
A clam or a cockle....

Where did you find it and it would be easy to find out more.. if you care .
