? Metrocardia sp. ( Fig. 6L View Fig ).—A single pyritised internal mould with poorly preserved dorsal portion has been studied. The present specimen is characterised by a dominance of radial ornamentation which consists of delicate furrows crossed by weaker commarginal lines. The subcircular shell shape suggests it belongs to Metrocardia ; however, the poorly preserved dorsal portion of the shell with lunule makes that the identification is imprecise. Metrocardia described by Křiž (2004) come from sediments of Early Franian and Early Famennian age.
