Summary:

Here is another interesting Pelecypod from the Campanian (Upper Cretaceous) of Charente, France. This was sent to me by my friend Gery in one of our fossil exchanges. I like the wrinkled look of the shell as though it were an exam paper that a student received a bad grade upon and had crumpled it up and tossed it aside.
