AgrilusHunter Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) Macropredators are so cool! And this one was around 9 meters long! Excellent popular literature article covering the new publication. PNAS link "Macropredatory ichthyosaur from the Middle Triassic and the origin of modern trophic networks" Hope you enjoy!

Scylla Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Very cool beast! Thanks for posting. As far as complex trophic webs, I think even the Burgess shale fauna give evidence of "modern" food webs with apex predation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
