Happy #thylacocephalanThursday
A new paper on the internal anatomy of a Devonian specimen of Concavicaris woodfordi is out with @Ellivalcaris
The specimen is externally unremarkable, but displays patterns of differential mineralization that are consistent with the preservation of internal tissues. #Palaeontology #paleontology #fossil #arthropoda #crustacea #thylacocephala #oklahoma #devonian #ctscan

On the 8th day of #Crustmas (and #thylacocephalanthursday) my true love gave to me Paradollocaris vannieri Charbonnier in Charboniier et al 2017. This bivalved crustacean is from the middle of the Cretaceous, and was found in the Cretaceous Plattenkalk Lagerstätte in Lebanon. Top image is cross-polarized light, bottom is orange-green fluorescence. Just look at those gills! #crustacea #arthropoda #thylacocephala #paleontology #palaeontology #fossils #lebanon #Cretaceous
