How about "Undertermined bivalve. "  ?

Sorry, can't help with the ID. 

There may not be enough of it there to make an accurate ID.

EDIT: I hope that paper helps. It should contain all known specimens at the time of its publication.

I'm thinking Phelopteria sp.

Nothing else gets close to the shape of this shell, and it has more of an edge along the hinge than most other shells would
