Peat Burns Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Here are two Edrioasteroids from the Verulam Fm. (Ordovician) near Brechin, Ontario, Canada. The first one might be Isorophusella? (specimen is 1 cm in diameter). The second one may not have enough present for ID: @crinus 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I reckon that you are right on both counts. The first one is a super specimen. 3 Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tidgy's Dad Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Hmmm. The not so well preserved one may be Belochthus ?

crinus Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 You are correct on the Iso. Even though the second is poor it does look like a Belochthus. Joe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
