Here are some modern x fossil comparisons:
- winged mayflies with withered wing margins
- unlucky mayfly nymphs with disarticulated heads
- dragonfly nymphs with extended mouth apparatus

They are the *exceptions*. Most Crato Formation aquatic insects fossilized quickly and are well-preserved.
3 sets of comparative pictures. On top there's a winged mayfly in lateral view, with the wing margins withered. Next to it, a fossilized winged mayfly also with withered wings. In the middle there is a mayfly nymph that lost its head, next to a fossil showing the exact same disarticulation. On the bottom, a dragonfly nymph with an extended mouthpiece, and next to it, a fossil (but in ventral view) also with the extended mouthpiece.

Are you sure about that? The paper says it is in the museum in Marrakesh.

Is this you?
Santa is working on his laptop, which has a xmas tree logo instead of an apple. He is not amused. A text says, Dear Timmy, your Christmas wish list has been conditionally accepted. Please address the reviewers’ comments and resubmit before the 24th of December. Best regards, S. Claus, PhD

Um dos efeitos colaterais da quimio da cachorra é a despigmentação do nariz. Já tá todo clarinho agora, do preto original só sobraram umas manchinhas
Foto de um cachorro branco com manchas marrons no banco de trás de um carro parado, olhando atentamente para algo na frente do carro. Os olhos são caramelo e o focinho é de um marrom acinzentado, com uma mancha preta no canto.

It’s that time of the year!! And with the US dollar at an all-time record, I am thankful for the Middle HDI country membership.
Print from my inbox. It’s an e-mail from the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology, confirming that I renewed my membership for another year.
