Peruvian shell id


Dennis Richards

Recommended Posts

I bought this shell fossil in a small local street stall selling artifacts in Lima, Peru. It was surely found in Peru. I'm afraid the seller (and therefore I) don't know anything more about it. Presumably its a bivalve with distinctive pimples along its ribbing. Any chance someone can identify it?

Wasn't this already identified HERE?  :headscratch:

Oops sorry. My memory is fossilized too it seems.

 

That's going to be even harder to ID! :zzzzscratchchin:

 

 

Mark.

 

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!
