A paleontological illustration shows a fossil bivalved carapace of a clam shrimp (Order Spinicaudata) with concentric growth rings and a prominent umbo region. This exoskeletal anatomical structure represents the carapace of a branchiopod crustacean (Class Branchiopoda, Phylum Arthropoda), which in life covered the dorsal trunk and protected the soft tissues while permitting hinge-like opening and closing. In invertebrate anatomy and paleoecology, its growth increments are used for biostratigraphy and reconstruction of freshwater depositional environments. Species-level identity is not specified.
