New Carboniferous- Permian brachiopods from Klaipeda district Western Lithuania
D.N.FossilmanLithuania posted a topic in Fossil ID
Good morning everyone. This summer I was in Klaipeda district (Western Lithuania) for several days and found some interesting brachiopod fossils in dolomite boulders that probably date back to Carboniferous- Permian times. Please help to identify genera of these brachiopod specimens, it would help much to know the precise age of each boulder. The largest brachiopod specimens are up to 3 cm length, the smallest rhynchonellid is 5 mm length.- 1 reply
