Brachs from HH certainly aren't my specialty (I still have a few I need to ID) but Darrell has come thru with your answer. Nice little Spirorbis attached to it.

Yeah I noticed it there too. I figured out what they were when I found this little cluster a couple weeks ago:

Elita fimbriata is a common brachiopod at Deep Springs Road Quarry, but always found as an imprint or cast. Your specimen is truly a beauty. Congratulations!

Mark.

 

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!

Hi Kevin,

 

If you post or message me photos I'll take a crack at identifying them for you. Please include dorsal, ventral, lateral, posterior and anterior views.
