Gastropoda - Naticidae

Taxonomy
Natica lincolnensis was named by Weaver (1916). It is a 3D body fossil. Its type locality is Galvin Station, which is in a Chattian offshore sandstone in the Lincoln Creek Formation of Washington.

It was recombined as Polinices lincolnensis by Effinger (1938), Durham (1944); it was recombined as Polinices (Euspira) lincolnensis by Marincovich (1977).
