Hawkeye Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 That's very cool. Do the 3-D roll of the skull. If you believe everything you read, perhaps it's time for you to stop reading... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest solius symbiosus Posted June 6, 2009 Share Posted June 6, 2009 ^^You know it! I have some trilobites that I think might have some soft tissue preservation. Anyone want to image these bugs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siteseer Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 a cool little ct scan of a cool little fossil. can you say "amphisbaenia"? i thought you could... a skull of a what? The last time I visited the Tate Museum (years ago), it had a display of amphisbaenids, or legless lizards. It was very interesting - something you would not expect to see as the average museum might have preferred to exhibit something much larger and/or viewable at other institutions. They are uncommon finds in the Oligocene layers of Nebraska, Wyoming, Colorado, and the Dakotas. You need a sharp eye to find them and previous exposure to them or you might mistake them for pebbles. I once found a partial skull of the more common Peltosaurus on a trip to the Shalimar Ranch in the early 90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
