Mid Devonian / Bivalve/ Pteriomorphia?

Recommended Posts

A find from todays Smoke Creek foray, I have yet to classify any Bivalves, and would appreciate any input.

approx. 45 mm length.

My initial reaction is perhaps Cornellites chemungensis

thanks, Carmine.:)

Looks like a dead ringer to me from IFNA. I'd say BINGO and now you have. Congrats! :D:):D

wow, thanks Scott, and for the fast reply, too!!!!:)

I thought it was time to start IDing a few more fossils than the trilos and brachiopods. I will get started on learning about some of these and the gastropods I keep ferreting away...:)

That's the plan, Stan!
