5 months, 3 weeks ago5 months, 3 weeks agoA lint roller works well on black velvet…at least under normal light. It won’t do much for the craziness you’ll see under UV.

Could you add another picture with a scale bar or ruler showing centimeters or a coin? This is almost perfect for inclusion into the e-museum, it just needs a good picture showing scale.

The little rhombs sometimes look like evil mouths to me. Am I the only one that thinks this…?

@jbauer they are sooo weird. That grill really looks like a grill!
-
@jess-cost – hahah!! YES! And the ambulacra look like braids!

5 months, 4 weeks ago5 months, 4 weeks agoIt is what we call a “pseudo-fossil.” Something that looks like a fossil, but is not. You are right about it looking like a brain, though.

6 months, 2 weeks ago6 months, 2 weeks agoThere’s three things I can tell you about this specimen: it is composed of a coal shale, it is a “limbcast,” though not from a tree limb- it is a root, and the common name is Stigmaria. Each one of those holes had a softer “sucker” root.

7 months ago7 months agoI find it strange that no one ever went back and redescribed it. There’s one paleozoic shark tooth that’s been renamed three different times! I think “Troostiblastus” sounds kinda cute.

7 months ago7 months agohahahaha, I bet there’s one of those in every room of my house! Though I must say they’re getting a little harder to find. You know I’m most partial to the Diploblastus. Poor wee things!

That is the best description of Troosticrinus ever!!! It is one of the weirdest blastoids.

@jess-cost there are rules against stuff like that- even if it would make it more logical. There’s and entire BOOK on it, very boring. But I would like to do a Troosticrinus project because they are WEIRD!! They have smushed spiracles, slits, and coronal canals aka TOO MANY respiratory structures. Future collaboration? Once I get a permanent position 0_o

These brachiopods always make me want to throw a “hang loose”! My old lab mate always would make that hand gesture when we were chatting spiriferids- really stuck with me!!

@jess-cost A lint roller hasn’t worked all that well for me, but I wonder if the smudges are really oil or something from my hands instead of dust particles.
