::summary Extinct genus of brachiopods ::

Lingulella is a genus of phosphatic-shelled 346 specimens of Lingulella are known from the Greater Phyllopod bed, where they comprise 0.66% of the community.

Some specimens of the brachiopod preserve the pedicle intact, which was long and thin. The brachiopod is thought to have been a generalist, as it appears consistently throughout the strata of the Greater Phyllopod bed.
