Beecheria is an extinct genus of brachiopod belonging to the order Terebratulida and family Beecheriidae.[1][2] Fossils of this genus have been found in Mississippian[3][4] to Permian beds in Eurasia,[4][5] Australia,[6] North America,[3] and South America.[7] The genus was part of the Levipustula fauna characteristic of cold water conditions.[7] "Nests" of Beecheria have been found in fossil low temperature hydrothermal vent communities from the early Carboniferous in Newfoundland.[8]
