The pygidia belong to the Dalmanitidae family, similar to Odontochile. Numerous dalmanitids are described from eastern Missouri.

Ok,thanks piranha,do you know what era and age roughly they would be

Pike County is a Silurian-Devonian mix. Without precise locality info I would simply label it: Dalmanitidae sp. indet.
