Extremely
rare on Sheppey, more often associated from Division B1/B2 of the London
clay. It is unusual for the body carapace to preserve, but in the example
below, the three split segments at the top right of the nodule are the
remains of the body section. Bathysquilla is characterised by the smooth,
polished nature of the tail section.
