mikeymig Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 A 380 million year old lingula brachiopod I found in NY and a recent example I won in an auction from Florida. This little brachiopod is an example of a living fossil. I've been looking for one of these recent inarticulate brachs for a loooooooooong time. Thanks Mikey 6 Many times I've wondered how much there is to know. led zeppelin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffrey P Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Really nice score on the modern brachiopod. I'm sure it's super hard to obtain one. Congratulations. That fossil specimen provides just the right juxtaposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miocene_Mason Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 They must be doing something right if they have been alive for 380 million years! Cool display! “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
