Again, nifty ornamentation.

 

The closest I'll postulate is Family level: Cardiidae

Beautiful -- great camera work too.

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

Thanks Hemipristis. 

I couldn't find a publication about Miosen bivalvia. May be they are some new species. But need work.

So weird!!! Never seen one like it! :wub: 

Same as for the other one, having this paper

Mollusques du Neogene des Bassins de Karaman, Adana et Hatay (Turquie), Ankara

Would be very helpful in determining which species yours is. I can't recognize a possible genus by myself, but the family is definitely Cardiidae (as already well seen by @hemipristis).

If anyone has a free PDF version of this paper, let us know!

Best regards,

Max
