Aviculopecten artiensis
No picture of Aviculopecten artiensis was found. Wikidata and iDigBio were searched and had none. Wikipedia has a picture filed under this name, but nothing tied it to Aviculopecten artiensis itself, so it was not used. Smithsonian Open Access did not answer, so this is what the others held rather than everything there is. GBIF was asked, and what came back is not recorded: nothing, or a picture this site could not tie to Aviculopecten artiensis, or no answer at all. This entry cannot say which.

Time the record covers
At least 6.8 million years on record.
The record covers at least 290.1 Mya to 283.3 Mya. No occurrence read is dated outside 293.52 Mya to 274.4 Mya.
2 occurrences of Aviculopecten artiensis on record, most of them in the Permian. Bar height is expected occurrences, not a count: each fossil is spread across the span it is dated to, so a tall narrow bar means tight dating and a low wide one means loose.
When
2 occurrences- Permian100%
These are dates about fossils, not the animal: the record can only begin after it arose and end before it died out, so either end may reach further. Shares are expected occurrences: a fossil dated to a span is counted partly in each period it straddles. More on what this infers.
