Rare Millipede)   ref ARTH340   Preserved in a hard ironstone nodule is this beautiful split pair containing a millipede and a leaf. The millipede is exceptionally well preserved with some of its legs also present. What makes this more interesting is that the millipede is resting on a leaf - could it have been eating this leaf as it died? A moment in time captured. Millipede fossils are exceptionally rare due to them being soft bodied. One for the serious collector of fine fossils.   Age Carboniferous, Westphalian   Size Size of Nodule 37mm x 29mm   location Crock Hey Open Cast, Wigan, Lancashire, UK     price £ 495.00     click to enlarge ADD TO CART       Name Portunites cf incerta (Crab carapace)   ref ARTH322   A beautiful example with magnificent detail throughout.
