Mazon Creek -Solved - ?Belotelson magister? dorsoventral

[LabRatKing]

Every once in a great while one gets lucky with a find.

 

This one is difficult to photograph, but what follows got me pretty excited.

Not in any of the books or guides I have found so far.

 

Played with lighting a bit to make the features somewhat more visible.

Shrimp molt would be my guess.

Thanks.That got me on the right track! the radial fractures from the split had me looking at it wrong.
