Looking to see if anyone is able to identify this as an Anomalocaris appendage? Measures approximately 60mm Middle Cambrian Latham Shale Marble Mountains, CA, USA Thanks in advance!

Hello, I just got this supposed Anomalocaris fossil from Yunnan of China, Cambrian in age. It's about 1.5cm length, and I belive a section from the end of an appendage. I was wondering if someone could determine a more specific species ID for it? Hopefully my phone's camera is enough to show the details. The specimen has quite clear preservation of the ventral spines, as well as their auxiliary spines coming off the front and back, and based on that I am thinking something like Anomalocaris kunmingensis (https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Anomalocaris-kunmingensis-sp-nov-from-the-Guanshan-biota-Yunnan-China-a_fig2_257689210/amp). But of course I don't know what I don't know. Thanks.

I believe it’s a feeding appendage. I’ve been told it’s an anomalocaradid feeding appendage, but i don’t remember any of the anoms iv seen having anything quite like that. I can’t remember ever seeing it in context, although feeding appendage definitely seems right.

I’ve never even heard of an appendate bone/fossil, but I’ve definitely never seen on in marine reptile appendages(specifically plesiosaurs). I’ve seen plenty of full paddles, but never anything other than the finger bones/phalanges(?). Do they have any? What does? And is this one?

Both of a single anomalocaris' appendages. Possible anomalocaris goo? A speculation I think would be very cool, that the splotchy splatters around appendages could, however likely or unlikely, be anomalocaris "filling" or fragments, since it appears the whole animal was present at the beginning, and maybe included in fossilization, immediately below the edge of this piece, since the 2 appendages are in articulated position. -

This is the only Leanchoilia I've ever seen with an appendage preserved! Quite a rarity. -
Is this an anomalocaris appendage? It was labeled as resembling an anomalocaris appendage, but Ive never seen one that looked like this, and I feel like Ive seen something else similar to this before. *wheeler shale, Utah.

Different Anomalocaridids grasping appendages. Amplectobelua symbrachiata is "e".
