    Nidelric pugio is only officially known from one single specimen, so it's uncertain if this is indeed a Nidelric pugio, or something else entirely.

    To complicate maters further, here's a new species of chancelloriid (Hu et al 2013) from the Wulongqing Formation - Guanshan Biota, and Nidelric pugio (Huo et al 2017). The specimen I have seems look a lot more like the specimen from Hu et al 2013, but the specimen I have is from the Heilinpu Formation...
