coled18 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 I know these are probably Pennsylvanian, as they come from the Flint Hills in NE Kansas. Yes, they are invertebrates, but I'm not sure of the Genus. CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobWill Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I would guess more likely brachiopods than bivalves. Maybe someone has a fauna list for the Flint Hills so you can make some comparisons. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abyssunder Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I agree! Both could be brachiopods. I was working on the same document linked by doushantuo, meantime he posted. Maybe a productid brachiopod for the upper one (something like Juresania), Derbyia for the lower one. 2 " We are not separate and independent entities, but like links in a chain, and we could not by any means be what we are without those who went before us and showed us the way.

coled18 Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Yea, I was thinking Derbyia for the lower one as well. Thanks for the input all! CD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
