GlenRose Formation 105 - 115 MYA

Found near roadcut in San Antonio 

 

Im thinking Tylostoma but I'm not sure. Maybe someone can chime in?

Also check out these echinoids I found there as well (and the hermit crab claw)

Fortunately the Forum is blessed with several members with expertise regarding Texas echinoids, including @JohnJ, @erose, and @Uncle Siphuncle among others.

 

I agree with Tylostoma for the gastropod.  Nice hermit crab claws, I'm sure the above mentioned members can help there too.

The first echinoid, below the gastropod, might be a Heteraster obliquatus.  Hard to tell due to image quality and crushed condition.  The second echinoid appears to be a Coenholectypus sp..  Nice finds.

The hermit crab dactyl is prob Paleopagurus banderensis.
