Hypodicranotus striatulus

Nautiloid

Hypodicranotus striatulus I found on February 19, 2023 while collecting at La Familia Quarry. It’s from the Middle Ordovician Trenton Group, and was found in a stratigraphic section where the species has never been documented. Unlike the vast majority of H. striatulus specimens, this one came from a thin bedded shale unit. Because of this, it is more compressed than most specimens, although the detail is still outstanding.

Thank you! As much as I do miss seeing that crazy hypostome, I think that the dorsal side is just as interesting!!
