Greetings, I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to track down recent references to Ptilodictya scalpellum Lonsdale. According to Murchison (1854, page 216; Fossils 36): "It is a common species in the Wenlock Limestone." Has it been synonymized with something else? Cheers, Doug ___________________________________________________________ Murchison, R.I. 1854: Siluria.
