It looks like Chonetinella has a fold / sulcus or at least a more pronounced fold / sulcus than the Neochonetes. Yours looks relatively flat. BUT, I'm not familiar with the Finis shale taxa, so I can't be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 Neochonetes based on lack of median sulcus. Beautiful image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
