Mazon Creek - Shrimp

Poorly preserved shrimp? Do folks agree? There is a noticeable gut line.....my guess is lebotelson given the longish rostrum....any other thoughts?

A fine example of why I don't try to ID Mazon Creek fossils if they are not plants. :D:drool:

Hi Evan,

You definitely have a shrimp but I do not think there is enough to give it an ID.

If I had to guess, I would say it is a Peachocaris strongi.
