terminatordiego Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) Hello again to all of you guys , I´m in a huge need oh help to ID some mollusks of south central Chile. Currently these are storaged in the vault of a local university. I know taht the fossils in the images are not in the best conditions, but the outcrop itself sadly has been seriously reworked by a bulldozer machinery (they may be a little bit flattened). At least to a family or genus level ID should be nice considering how they actually are. The beds should be of the Miocene to Pliocene. But also theres a very minor chance of being from the middle to upper Eocene. The larger axis of each cabinet is around the size of a fist. Here the photos: Thanks again and greetings from Chile!!!

FranzBernhard Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Yeah, they look remarkably similar to Cenozoic molluscs at the other side of the globe. But belong to completely different genera etc. Could be veneroid, tellinid etc. bivalves, though. @MikeR Franz Bernhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
