Australian Brachiopods & Clams

Here are some pictures sent to me by Bill in Australia. Here are some unidentified brachiopods and clams in mudstone or shale. They have a nice brownish-red color.

These fossils were found in southeastern Australia. They might be Ordovician Period.

It is always good to see fossils from different regions of the world.
