Lobetelson mclaughlinae Shrimp - Mazon Creek Fossil 984cabaa01be0eaa051bad79d9c4bd6f The term fossilized is importantMarine Estuarine Shrimp: Fossil shrimp were first reported from the Mazon Creek area around 1860, but prior to the opening of Pit 11 in the mid 1950s, the diversity was remarkably small.
