Description
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Hemichordata
Class: Pterobranchia
Subclass: Graptolithina
Order: Graptoloidea
Family: Monograptidae
Appears to be a mesial/distal end of a monograptid with extensive thecal overlap. 2TRD is 2.1 mm and rhabdosome is straight with a width of 2.0 mm. Appears to possibly be Monograptus? clematis due to similar measurements in 2TRD and similar appearance of monoclimacid-like distal thecae where the dorsal hook is reduced to only a dorsal hood.
