El Arctinurus boltoni fue un trilobite del Silúrico medio (432-422 MdA) que superaba los 15 cm de longitud. Este espécimen pequeño de la lutita de Rochester, Nueva York, se ha conservado cubierto por braquiópodos.🏛️Museo Americano de Historia Natural #trilobite #silurico #silurian

Tradicionalmente, se ha interpretado que el trilobite Deiphon nadaba y flotaba gracias a su glabela llena de aceite, pero tiene unos ojos diminutos y una terrible hidrodinámica que le hubieran entorpecido. No quiere decir que otros trilobites no lo hicieran. 📷GB3D Type Fossils #trilobite #silurico #silurian

El tiempo geológico es esquivo. Intentamos medirlo utilizando fósiles, radioisótopos, yacimientos de cenizas volcánicas y secciones geológicas seleccionadas que mejor representan lo que ocurrió en un momento dado de la historia de la #Tierra. Estas secciones se denominan estratotipos y los límites importantes del tiempo geológico se marcan con puntas doradas. Hoy colocamos una punta dorada en un nuevo límite: el Aeroniano/Teliciano en el Silúrico inferior, en el afloramiento de El Pintado en Sierra Morena de #Sevilla, #Andalucía. #Silurian #geology #stratigraphy

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
Here's a study of Kingnites, commissioned in 2022 for a project I cannot talk about yet. Kingnites, is an exceptionally large (1m long) Silurian polychaete annelid.

Los trilobites del género Sphaerocoryphe, que vivieron entre el Ordovícico medio y el Silúrico, tienen una enorme glabela bulbosa. 📷Skye McDavid #trilobite #ordovicico #ordovician #silurico #silurian

El Acheronauta stimulapis es un abundante artrópodo del Silúrico temprano (438-433 MdA) con un caparazón que protegía principalmente la cabeza. Posiblemente fue un carroñero o un depredador oportunista. Pudo ser uno de los primeros artrópodos con mandíbulas.📷Mikaela A. Pulsipher et al., 2022 #silurico #silurian

Today's #mega...er... organisms...are prototaxites. These large, columnar fossils date to 240-350 million years, and stood 24 feet tall and 3 feet wide when they were alive. During this time period, both plants and animals on land were still quite small--meaning that #prototaxites formed the dominant feature of the land during the #Silurian and #Devonian periods.
But what exactly were these giant spires? First described in 1859, they were originally thought to be very early trees. However, their internal structure of tiny, criss-crossing tubes suggests that this is not correct. Chemical analysis also indicates that prototaxites gained their energy from diverse sources--ruling out the idea that they were plants.
This leads to the conclusion that prototaxites were giant, spire-like mushrooms--and the researchers who completed the analysis suggested that their height helped them to spread spores in an otherwise low-laying landscape.
An alternative explanation--perhaps attempting to account for the prototaxites' unusual height--suggests that they were a matted mixture of liverworts, fungus, and cyanobacteria that got rolled up by external forces and never stood upright. This has been disputed based on the fossils' anatomy and chemical makeup.

Nostolepis sp. in Pridoli sea with some scolecodonts, crinoids and ostracods.
Drawn while doing my Master's research. I find all of these in samples I have.

Silurian acanthodian scale. Possibly Nostolepis gracilis taxa. From Silurian, Pridoli, Lithuania (EU). Preparing for my Master's 2nd semester work presentation. Sadly I have found almost no acanthodian fossils (yet), so I could not go and take better pictures (with SEM).Hope to gather at least 20 scales before going there.

Fossils from Lithuania. Silurian period, Pridoli.
Still searching for acanthods in the samples for my Master's thesis.

Quincy or #BlueHills #Porphyry #Granite
An alkaline, nonorogenic granite intruded into #Avalonia in the #Silurian / #Ordovician as it cruised from peri-#Gondwana to #Laurentia, before assembling #Pangea in the #Acadian #Orogeny (#Devonian). It’s coarse, with the #phenocrysts of amphiboles(?) (possibly riebeckite?)…I’m no petrologist. From@the Eaton’s Pond conservation area@at the #Braintree #Quincy border. My photos.

#FossilAdventCalendar Day 2
#FossilFridayHeading north along #Ontario's 🇨🇦 #NiagaraEscarpment brings us to the #BrucePeninsula, where these #Silurian #scorpions were found. Displayed in and named by scientists at the #RoyalOntarioMuseum, Eramoscorpius brucensis lived in the #ocean, but its relatives were among the first #animals on land. Its sturdy legs and the locality at which these #fossils were found hint that this #marine #scorpion may have already been venturing onto #beaches to #molt.

Some hashtags to help orient you:
I work in #VertebratePaleontology, with focus on the #Evolution of #JawedVertebrates and the #FishTetrapodTransition. The timeframe for my research essentially spans the #Silurian, #Devonian and #Carboniferous periods. Much of my work is based on #SynchrotronTomography carried out at the #EuropeanSynchrotronRadiation Facility, #ESRF.
