Another interesting brachiopod I recently came across was this slab of Limestone containing a number of Latiproductus latissimus from the Visean (Mississippian) of Gwynedd, North Wales, U.K. These brachiopods tend to cluster together and are often found in life-positions indicating they lived in fairly quiet conditions with little turbulence. These specimens are showing their ventral valves and you can just about see the spine bases typical of this genus.
