Kansas Productid Brachiopod Identification

Productid Brachiopod is a realistic Kansas fossil profile built around thick spined brachiopod common in carbonate beds and cherts. In this state, success usually comes from learning chalk beds, badlands mudstones, and river gravels, then timing runoff, reservoir drawdown, surf cuts, or road work that exposes fresh fossil-bearing rock instead of hunting blindly.
