Fossildude19 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 (edited) Pic is really blurry. Any chance of better photos? First looks kind of like a crab claw,...but not sure with pic quality so low. Also - where was this found??

squalicorax Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 First one looks like a bivalve. My Flickr Page of My Collection: http://www.flickr.com/photos/79424101@N00/sets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auspex Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 First one looks like a bivalve. Yes; the 'teeth' are in the opposing hinge lines.

Evgeny Kotelevsky Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 As for me, it's look like bivalve "lock" http://evgenykotelevsky.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracefossilnut Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Not much chance of a better photo. The fossils are from the Penn. age Brentwood formation in Washington County Arkansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracefossilnut Posted February 16, 2013 Author Share Posted February 16, 2013 Thank you for all of your advice. I'm guessing bivalve is probably right. I find bivalves at this site, but no crustaceans except for trace fossils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
