Abstract
Preservation of pristine pigmentation in fossil shells is a rare phenomenon (Teichert, 1964) and fossilization accompanied by recrystallization often renders the primary color bands indiscernible (Shrock and Twenhofel, 1953). Nevertheless, there are reports on color markings in fossil shells ranging from the Middle Cambrian to Holocene (Hoare, 1978; Mapes and Hoare, 1987; Kobluk and Mapes, 1989).
