I have been prepping out bivalves from the Edmunds Fm. Below are the ones I have prepped and collected so far. Most of them were consolidated with Paraloid. They are all rather incomplete, but still show the characteristics of their respective species. A right valve Eurymyella shaleri. The external mold was practically destroyed, but the cast survived mildly well. It is 5cm long. And a Nuculites corrugatus, with the external mold having survived better this time. The cast, though, shows more detail. Cast is on top, it is 4 cm long; external mold on bottom, it is 5 cm long.

Fossil Forum, I have recently uncovered the external mold of a gastropod. I am thinking that it is Platyschisma helicites, but am unsure. The main problem is that I am unaware of the formation it is from. I found it right next to an outcrop of the Leighton Formation, but the fauna and the matrix does not match it. It might be from the Edmunds Formation, but I am unsure of this too. Either way, they are both Silurian. Any help on its ID would be appreciated. Here are some pictures of it:
