Hello, friends. 

I received some crumbly rocks, that are principally crinoidal limestone chunks from Rattvik, Dalarna County, Sweden from @Kasia

They are Late Ordovician in age, probably Boda Limestone, and when I boshed them I uncovered three brachiopods and this little specimen that I think is a bivalve. 

I'm leaning towards Ctenodonta, but I don't know my bivalves very well, so I am asking for help. It's 8 mm wide at it's widest point. 

Thank you very much for looking and elbow bumps for any suggestions.

Thanks for looking, Tim. 

I'm rather happy just to have found one, plus a really nice brachiopod or three in the middle of all those crinoid bits. :)

Sometimes it's good to whack it. :hammer01:
