Dryosaurus Altus Dinosaur Femur Fossil // 150 Million Years Old
About the Item
This is the well preserved and fully intact fossilized femur of a Dryosaurus altus, found in Emery County, Utah within the famous fossil-rich Morrison Formation spanning much of the Western United States. The Dryosaurus altus was a species of ornithopod living during the late Jurassic period. "Dryosaurus" means "oak lizard", and "altus" references this herbivorous dinosaur's relatively tall stature and agility.

500 Million Yrs old Fossil Trilobite
Located in Scorton, GB
The extraordinary fossil Harpes trilobite, measuring eight four millimetres overall, is a wonderfully articulated and fine specimen. Exotic trilobites have influenced some of the most iconic sci-fi films and helped shape the structure of some of the most sophisticated architectural buildings in modern times.
The Harpes trilobite, with its unique patterning and streamlined aesthetic, is a species that never fails to intrigue. Its wide, heavily pitted brim, fringe with a curled rim, and elegant taper to the point of both cephalon long spines make it a true enigma. The eyes set back high on the glabella, and the well-defined thoracic segments add to its allure for inquiring minds.
With reference once more to the Martian-looking brim, this wide brim with innumerable pitting could have aided the invertebrate lift, much like a hydrofoil. Again, this is the theory at this time.
Palaeontologists theorise the possible functions of these anatomical features, either being a wide sieve to filter bottom sediments for food or to detect movement, a sensory organ.
Over the 250,000,000-year range of the trilobites, many different morphological adaptions developed from free swimmers to bottom sifters. The expanded and pitted cephalic fringe, a distinct anatomical development seen in harpetids and trinucleids types, including the Harpes trilobite, is a significant area of study in palaeontology. This species, featured in a beautifully designed lucite display case...
