Another nice reconstruction of #Marrella splendens (& a great #paleontology thread on the #BurgessShale fauna):

More context on #Marrella splendens: famous #USGS geologist HD Walcott first (erroneously) described these as trilobites in 1912—what he called “Lace crabs”, although Charles Schuchert disagreed. Only in 1971 did HB Whittington show that they belong to a separate #arthropod subphylum altogether!

My marrella Monday drawing. Trying to get the shape more. I need lots of work. The antennules are way off back spiniforms need to be more S shaped

Almost done my notes on Simonetta then I’ll move on to Whittington. Currently interesting bit is the decision he made with the epipodite. Simonetta didn’t believe Marrella had any.

Simonetta provided the best older Marrella analysis. Look at the detail. This is in his 1962 analysis of the Walcott batch. He’s not happy that Walcott exaggerated 🤣 he’s not Achilles Guenee level rude yet

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...
In 2013 I built 23 scale and life-size models for MUSE Science Museum, in Trento, Italy. Here's an enlarged Marrella, a trilobite from the Middle Cambrian.
