Weisbordella was an extinct irregular echinoid (sea urchin) that lived during the Eocene Epoch, about 56 to 34 million years ago. Unlike regular sea urchins, it had a slightly heart-shaped or oval test with bilateral symmetry. In addition, it belonged to the order Spatangoida. As a result, it used short spines to burrow through soft marine sediments while feeding on organic material.

Today, collectors find well-preserved Weisbordella fossils in Florida’s Ocala Limestone. In addition, many specimens retain fine surface detail, including distinctive petal-like pore patterns. Therefore, collectors and museums highly value these fossils.
