Pectinidae WILKES 1810

Description

PECTINIDAE WILKES, 1810

FIG. 37

UCMP 412480 is a mold of a small indeterminate Pectinidae. The cast is about 7 mm high with 10, possibly 11, strong radial ribs, with the suggestion of finer concentric sculpture on some ribs. A possible posterior auricle is present although the impression is very faint and difficult to distinguish, and no sculpture is observable. The size and lack of diagnostic features does not allow for identification beyond the family.
