I picked up a nice Eocene fossil specimen at a Gem and Mineral Show yesterday, both valves whole with matrix inside it. It's labeled Mercenaria menaria from Madagascar, a lovely, elongated bivalve but with no author or date listed. I have no sources on Madagascar, Eocene or otherwise. Does anyone know the author and date? Any other info?
