The thecae are more closely packed and shorter than in the similar Paradelograptus. Useful paper, with graptolite illustrations (Fig. 5), here: The Lower Ordovician Fezouata Konservat-Lagerstätte from Morocco

This rather tasty, large graptolite just arrived after a surprise auction win. It's labelled Clonograptus rigidus Hall which seems reasonable though I'm always being caught out by these. The location is given as 25km north of Zagora (should be OK?) but the age is given as Floian stage when I'm pretty sure it should be Tremadocian, probably Murrayi Zone. ( @Spongy Joe - I guess you've seen a lot like this... )

Multi-branched graptolite, Morocco Ordovician, Paradelograptus tenuis
TqB posted a topic in Member Collections
After missing out on a superb one of these when the bidding went a bit crazy, I was pleased to pick this up for very much less . The plate contains a large piece of Paradelograptus tenuis, mixed up with broken bits of the same and also Kiaerograptus. Lower Ordovician, Fezouata Formation, Zagora region, Morocco. (I think the seller's ID is OK - graptolites can be very tricky and I haven't checked it in depth but it matches one (fig 5B) in this paper on Reseachgate: Ordovician Fezouata) I've roughly photoshopped it in photo 2 to show the single specimen and added a mirror image in photo 3 to reconstruct its other half (which was present in the one I couldn't afford - I wonder if anyone here has it? ).

A nice Dictyonema flabelliforme dendroid graptolite from Oslo Fields in Norway. It's Tremadoc, Lower Ordovician in age and is thus maybe around 480 mya. Another angle :

I would very much like to learn of the collecting experiences and about the fossils that other collectors may have obtained from the Lower and Upper Ordovician sites in southeast Morocco.
