Mystery 'Micrograph' #13
This one is more of a macrograph than a micrograph, and for once it may or may not involve a non-protist. This one is actually pretty weird. This is to give some of the sane people non-protistophiles a chance =P Bonus marks for telling me why this organism is weird/interesting.

ReplyDeletePaleodictyon!
ReplyDelete(some kind of worm burrow?)
Wow, quickest one ever! Yup, it's Paleodictyon nodosum, and it doesn't seem to be known what the hell it actually is...apparently it's either a worm burrow, a flattened sponge or a foram -- that is, pretty much anything...
ReplyDeleteNot surprised that a paleontologist would know it though! =P
