Silurian mollusks in the New York Times-

[Philip Rutter 2]

A cool article today in the New York Times on Silurian Aculiferan Mollusca; given fun names for "Punk" and "Emo" resemblances.  But the entire article is far more interesting, including state-of-the-art imaging processes; and a link to the Nature article, which, bless them, is open access.  l learned a lot.

Interesting paper! Thanks for posting it.   

The article was a soft paywall, though.

Thanks for the link—fascinating, as Spock would say.

OK for me, maybe because I'm in the UK? (The Nature one that is.)

It's specifically the Times article. There is a threshold (I think ) of 2 or 3 articles for free, then you have to register.
