Abstract

Cardiarina cordata Cooper, 1956, has previously been placed in the Rhynchonellacea. Specimens present in the Dickerson Shale (Pennsylvanian, Desmoinesian) in north-central Texas have a terebratulid centronelloidiform loop, and although there are no punctae preserved, are questionably assigned to C. cordata and placed in the Terebratulacea.
