paleonet Looking for identification help



Hello,
This is a posting for a colleague; please respond directly to her email
address, below.
Cheers,
Rebekah


*********************************************************************

I found two uncatalogued specimen lots in the Devonian section of our
collection that have identifications, however I do not know what
groups--i.e. corals, brachiopods, etc.--to which they belong.  I couldn't
find the genera on the Paleobiology database or on Paleoportal.  Could
someone perhaps help with this?  The first one is "Adisina tenuilineata
(Shum.)" and the second one is "Paracites sp. [Mud Lake]".  The second looks
like a brachiopod, but I'm not sure.  Thanks in advance.
