📖 Further reading: The study underlines the need to re-examine the #paleoecology of these fascinating #arthropods and that additional discoveries like Polonolimulus may led to further revisions in our understanding of the #habitat and early #diversification of this group.

Surprise in amber: exotic harvestmen once lived in Europe

A German-Bulgarian research team led by SNSB paleontologist Christian Bartel has discovered a new species of harvestman in 35-million-year-old Ukrainian and Baltic amber. The animal is related to harvestmen that are now extinct in Europe. The researchers published their findings in the journal Acta Palaeontologica Polonica.

die frühere feststellung, dass ein zeitliches nach vorne legen meiner #AuwaldRunde nicht zu mehr gelegenheiten #krabbeltierchen zu fotografieren führt, eher im gegenteil, hat sich heute bestätigt. lediglich ein tausendfüßer, an fast der gleichen stelle wie zuletzt, könnte also sein dass das nicht nur der gleiche sondern sogar der selbe ist :D
