Hi Waltraud. It looked like a bivalve from the photo, but happy to change to Brachiopodes if you think that's what it is.

how interesting and confusing. This A mearnsii looks different from many of the other wattles which I thought are A. mearnsii. I'm very confused ....

hi MichaelBedingfield how did you arrive at Bivalvia ie mollusks with lateral symmetry rather than Brachiopodes with a dorsoventral symmetry? I must admit I don't know either since both mollusks groups occur very early from Kambrium and both occur in Canberra's Silurian shale as far as I know (for instance Woolshed creek fossil bed, Majura valley).
