Tomographic Reconstruction of Neopterous Carboniferous Insect Nymphs
Two new polyneopteran insect nymphs from the Montceau-les-Mines Lagerstätte of France are presented. Both are preserved in three dimensions, and are imaged with the aid of X-ray micro-tomography, allowing their morphology to be recovered in unprecedented detail. One-Anebos phrixos gen. et sp. nov.-is of uncertain affinities, and preserves portions of the antennae and eyes, coupled with a heavil...

Nowhere is this modification of the integument more important than f...
متن کاملFire ecology of a Late Carboniferous floodplain, Joggins, Nova Scotia
The facies distribution and palaeobotanical identity of fossil charcoal is described from the Upper Carboniferous (Westphalian A–B) Joggins section, Nova Scotia, in order to examine the fire ecology of early Westphalian floodplains. Three charcoal assemblages are noted. Assemblage (1) consists of channel sandstone bodies, containing beds of calcrete breccia, cordaite logs (up to 3 m long), and ...
متن کاملLepidodendron hickii and Generic Delimitation in Carboniferous Lepidodendrid Lycopods
