John7779 Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 Spent 2 weeks with a dremel very carefully revealing more and more of this! Don't know exactly what it is.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobWill Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 It looks a little like a brachiopod, Composita ovata but ti depends on the age. Where was it found? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludwigia Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Terebratulid probably. Stratigraphy? Please place more views from different angles. Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobWill Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Flint Hills appears to be Permian so brachiopod is a good ID but maybe someone can tell us what is commonly found there. I don't know the Terebratulids, maybe Composita is among them, it just looks a lot like the ones we find in the Pennsylvanian of Texas and at least some of the species were also in the Late Permian.

Innocentx Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Could be Composita subtilita. My experience is there's a bit of variety among the compositas, possibly 3 variations in my area. I know this visually, not from verified IDs. 3 "Journey through a universe ablaze with changes" Phil Ochs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, I was trying to remember who was the Kansas member. Have you collected the Flint Hills? Maybe John will be happy with Composita sp.

John7779 Posted September 30, 2018 Author Share Posted September 30, 2018 I was researching as well and agree that it could be the composita sp. So interesting,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's my main area for collecting, eastern edge which includes Pennsylvanian (Osage Questas) and Permian (the hills).
