Fullux Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I'm interested in this Arthropleura fossil and I just want to make sure it's legit. The seller says it's a pleurosegment from the tail of a younger individual. They also point out that there are Mariopteris remains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Looks like a segment of Arthropleura to me. 1 3 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."

Fissiletag Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I agree it's an arthropleura. I've got a similar one in my collection. It is most likely an undescribed species of Arthropleura and not Arhtolepeura armata. Here's a paper I found while researching the one I own.

Yes, that is something along the lines of what the seller said, it was also found in Poland. Very interesting paper by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
