Mississippian Burlington Formation gastropod ID

Recommended Posts

Hey there, I cannot find anything in my literature/ books on Burlington Formation straparolus gastropod IDs. I can confirm this is from encrinite Burlington Formation limestone, Henry County, one of my sweet spots. It is the first complete one to date I've found there, and I would like to have a more precise label for my first complete straparolus sp. fossil if possible. I can glue/ prep the specimen if needed for an ID, but I would need probably 2 weeks time for that.

Thanks for any leads- Jackson G

Maybe look into Euomphalus instead? 

 

Euomphalus and Straparollus are both mentioned in This PDF.
