Fossil Help Please

Recommended Posts

This has small fan-like figures throughout it. One is much bigger than the rest. Can you tell me what they are please? The back is sooo different than the front as it is smooth without anything on it at all. Thanks for your help!

The hinge area (umbo or foramen) is missing, so it could be a strophomenid or even an orthid. 

Not enough to go on, I'm afraid.

There’s a few smaller ones shown in this picture. Not sure if they show you what you’re looking for or not? Thank you for the information!

Sorry, no. 

Do you have a more precise location?

That may help.
