Camarotoechia Brachiopod


The nice weather and the increased amount of daylight was enough reason for a little evening collecting.  Here is what might be a Camarotoechia brachiopod (Hall & Clarke 1893).   It is the first one I have found.  Fossil is from the Jeffersonville Limestone of Jefferson County, Kentucky.  Specimen dates to the Middle Devonian period.
