fossilcrazy Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I wanted to complete drawings of all the reported Silurian Trilobites from Caleb's Quarry in Middleport, NY. I started late in December and finish today April 5th. Drawing was enjoyable, but got to be work towards the end. Top left to right: Arctinurus boltoni, Bumastus ioxus, Dicalymene sp., Calymene niagarensis,Decoroproetus corycoeus. Bottom left to right: Dalmanites limulurus, Dicranopeltis nereus, Illaenus insignis, Radnoria bretti and Trimerus delphinocephalus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miocene_Mason Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Awesome bug drawings! Great job “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ynot Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Nice drawings! Are they to scale? Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys." Will Rogers said: " Some of them didn't spring far enough."

doushantuo Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Relevant question.At least the Radnoria might be about 3 x natural size? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minnbuckeye Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Great work! Can you do that for the trilobites in my area? I am sure, being Ordovician, they are easier to draw! Kidding aside, it will greatly help amateur collectors like me who find partials, or even complete trilobites, to understand which trilobite they are dealing with. I expect the Ordovician trilos to be done by next Monday. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
