Mainefossils Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 @Tidgy's Dad might be able to help. Nice find! Regards, Asher 1 The more I learn, the more I find that I know nothing. Regards, Asher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tidgy's Dad Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 It's a rhynchonellid. Without location you're not going to get any more. It's very nice, though. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very similar looking rhynchonellids in similar preservation occur from the Late Ordovician to today. Life's Good! Tortoise Friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Looks similar to Devonian Uncinulus sp. , as I stated in this topic. 1 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
