description |
|
This lovely example of a pathological clypeus is quite rare, it's the first one we have seen. At the lower end of the test it is twisted and buckled which has totally affected the echinoid. Clypeus from this famous locality are becoming increasingly difficult to source. Approximately 167 million years old. |
