The Brachiopod field of the Fossils section should be used to record any observation of fossil brachiopods.

Brachiopods are marine animals with a hinged, two-part shell on the top and bottom as opposed to the left and right arrangement of clams. Brachiopods also have a coiled, rigid cartilaginous internal structure called a lophophore, which sometimes appears in fossils.

Brachiopods and clams are sometimes difficult to distinguish.
