Found these little Pelecypoda stuff in Late Carboniferous-Early Permian site in West of Beijing, China. They are side by side with Sea lily and other terrestrial plants like Calamites, Sphenophyllums, etc., so a river delta setting is assumed. With ezro knowledge on bivalves, and after painstaking online search I came up with some candidates from the general outlook: Palaeonodonta, Anthraconauta , carbonicola, anthraconaia, wilkingia, However I could not find any detailed description fpr any of the above genus so far. What could it be? the finest mark is 1mm in pic

Hi all! What a great forum!- so many experts!. This is my collection of "clam shells", and on a previous forum I saw discussion on similar shells between Wilkingia and Allorisma. Only took the two views initially to save MB. Thoughts, feedback and ideas as to species and age? All found on one gravel bar hiking KC, though not on the same dates. Thanks! Bone

Wilkingia terminale vs Wilkingia terminalis
DPS Ammonite posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
What is the proper ending for the specific name of Wilkingia terminale: terminale or terminalis? Allorisma was renamed Wilkingia in 1959 by Wilson. I suspect since the genus name was changed the ending of the specific name needed to change to match the case, gender and number of the genus name. Anyone fluent in Latin and good at matching their word endings? http://fossilworks.org/bridge.pl?a=taxonInfo&taxon_no=18845 http://entomology.ifas.ufl.edu/frank/KISS/kiss9.htm
