Crassatella (Crassatella) mississippiensis
Taxonomy
Crassatella mississippiensis was named by Conrad (1848) [DISTRIBUTION: Early Oligocene; Gulf Coastal Plain.]. Its type specimen is ANSP 30664, a shell, and it is a 3D body fossil. Its type locality is Vicksburg, which is in a Rupelian marine marl in the Byram Marl Formation of Mississippi.
It was recombined as Crassatellites mississippiensis by Conrad (1850), Dall (1916), Richards (1943); it was recombined as Crassatella (Crassatella) mississippiensis by Dockery (1982).
