Report by: K. M. Nichols , Norman J. Silberling
Referred by: Robert L. Detterman
Age: Triassic (Triassic?)
Comment:The ribbing and general form of these fragmentary and deformed bivalves resemble those of the LIMA that is characteristic of the typical Shublik Formation and that from the available stratigraphic data seems to range through most or all of its middle part. Limids range on upwards through the Mesozoic and Cenozoic, so if you really believe this collection is from 250 ft, above (the top) of the Shublik, this is still a possiblility.
