Unique Specimens, stratigraphically

Fossilized branches and leaves of conifers are called Brachyphyllum. They are probably remains of araucaria.A series of lagoons in southern Germany, the Solnhofen Sea, evaporated cyclically and became highly saline and oxygen-depleted. As a result, all life in them died and was completely buried. Of course, this also affected submerged plants and their decomposers.Age: Upper Jurassic, Lower Tithonian, Mörnsheim strata;Locality: Mühlheim near Mörnsheim, Gailachtal, district of Eichstätt, Bavaria, GermanySize: approx. 9 x 7 cm; length of branch: 2,5 cmColors in product photos may differ from those of the original specimen for technical reasons.

Period: Lower Ordovician;Location: Ensjö Quarry, Kristiania, NorwayDimensions: 6.5 x 5.5 x 0.5 cmPhyllograptus is a genus of graptolites belonging to the order Graptoloidea, family Tetragraptidae.Fossils of this genus have been found from the Early Ordovician (475–473 million years ago) in sediments in Australia, Bolivia, Canada, Chile, China, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The typical length of a colony of these leaf-shaped animals could reach up to 3.5 centimeters. They were passively mobile planktonic suspension feeders. Phyllograptus species are excellent index fossils for identifying rocks from the Ordovician.

Remarkably beautiful, large, and tridimensionally preserved head ofBalteurypterus tetragonophtalmus on matrix.Eurypterids, also known as sea scorpions due to their pointed tails, originated in the Ordovician period. They were the dominant predators of the Upper Ordovician, Silurian, and Lower Devonian seas and reached their greatest species diversity during this time.This order's most impressive representatives could grow up to a length of 3 m, while Balteurypterus tetragonophtalmus only reached a few modest centimeters. The large group of eurypterids had a fin-like, powerful last pair of legs. They also had two respiratory systems, book gills and gill plates, and trace fossils show that they were quite capable of going ashore. Unfortunately, they didn't quite make the leap, for like their close relatives, the horseshoe crabs, they used their leg attachments for chewing, which is much more efficient underwater than on land.Fish were increasingly competing with them in the marine environment, causing the Eurypterids to retreat to river systems.Only a few varieties of what is believed to be the largest known arthropod of all time remained in the Permian period.Age: Silurian, Bagovitsa FormationLocality: Smotrych (left branch of Dniester River), near Kamianets-Podilskyi,Khmelnytskyi Oblast, UkraineHead size: 2.7 cmMatrix: approx. 3.5 x 3.5 cmDue to technical reasons, colors in product photos may differ from those of the original piece.

Age: SilurianFinding region: Smotrych River, Kamjanez-Podilskyj, UkraineSize of head: 2 cmSize of matrix: 6 x 5 x 0,7 cmEurypterids, also called sea scorpions for their pointy telson, evolved in the Ordovician. They were the apex predators of the upper Ordovician, Silurian and lower Devonian seas, and reached their largest biodiversity during this time. The largest representatives of this order could reach up to 3 meters, while Balteurypterus tetragonophtalmus only was a few modest centimeters long. The Suborder of Eurypterina, to which Eurypterus of course belongs, modified their last pair of legs into swimming paddles. They had two respiratory systems - book gills and Kiemenplatten - and trace fossils indicate that they could go on land. They never fully transitioned, however, probably because like their relatives the horseshoe crabs they chewed with the bases of their legs outside of their mouth, which would have been more efficient underwater than on land. In the seas, fish started outcompeting them, which drove the remaining species into the rivers. In the Permian there were only a few species left, among them the heaviest arthropods to ever exist. During the Permo-Triassic extinction the last members of this group went extinct.The colors on the pictures may differ slightly from the original due to technical reasons.

Age: SilurianLocality: Kamjanez-Podilskyj, Khmelnytskyi oblast, UkraineSize matrix: approx. 4 x 3,5 x 1,5 cmSize head: 2 x 2 cmEurypterids, also known as sea scorpions because of their pointed tails, evolved in the Ordovician.

They had two respiratory systems - book gills and gill plates - and trace fossils show that they were quite capable of walking on land. Unfortunately, they didn't quite make the leap, because like their close relatives, the horseshoe crabs, they used the tips of their legs to chew, which is much more efficient underwater than on land. Fish also increasingly competed with them in the sea, so that they retreated to the river systems. By the Permian, there were only a few species of these presumably largest known arthropods of all time.Colors on product photos may differ from those of the original specimen for technical reasons.

Fossilized tooth of a prehistoric whale!Period: Eocene;Location: Western Sahara, Boujdour, MoroccoSize: 14.3 x 3.5 cmThis impressive fossilized tooth comes from the prehistoric whale Basilosaurus, one of the largest marine predators of the late Eocene (approximately 40–34 million years ago). The specimen was found in the fossil-rich region near Boujdour in the Western Sahara (Morocco), which is known worldwide for its exceptionally well-preserved marine fossils.The tooth is distinguished by its typical, slightly curved shape and robust, conical structure, which is characteristic of Basilosaurus’ predatory lifestyle. The surface shows natural signs of wear as well as fine details of the enamel structure, providing an authentic insight into the biology of these early whales. As a so-called “fang,” it was used to grasp and tear apart prey—presumably fish and smaller marine mammals.Scientifically, Basilosaurus belongs to the Archaeocetes, an extinct group of early whales that still exhibited numerous characteristics of their land-dwelling ancestors. Its teeth are heterodont, meaning they show a clear differentiation in form and function—an indication of a complex diet and an important evolutionary transitional phase in the development of modern whales.Colors in product photos may differ slightly from those of the original specimen due to technical reasons.

RARE FIND!A metacarpal or metatarsal bone from a primitive large mammal.Brontotherium sp.Period: Upper Eocene;Location: North AmericaDimensions: 16,5 x 4 x 4 cm Brontotherium is the name of a genus of extinct mammals originally described as distinct, which was assigned to the Brontotheriidae (Brontotheria) of the Paleogene of North America, a family within the odd-toed ungulates that is closely related to modern horses. The validity of the genus is widely questioned (nomen dubium), as numerous authors now place it within Megacerops. The name Brontotherium was introduced in 1873 by Othniel Charles Marsh and referred to three individuals, evidenced by skeletal remains, from the Yale University Museum of Natural History. These had originally been classified as Titanotherium, another invalid taxon within the Brontotheria (the latter genus name, in turn, dates back to Joseph Leidy in 1852, who, due to the enormous size of a fossil that had been associated with the horse-like Palaeotherium, proposed renaming it Titanotherium).The colours in the pictures may differ from those of the original.

Age: Jurassic;Locality: Esch, LuxemburgSize: 10 x 7,5 x 7,5 cmThe extinct bivalve species Ceromya aalensis lived during the Middle Jurassic, more precisely in the Aalenian stage around 174 to 170 million years ago. Its name is derived directly from this time interval. It inhabited shallow marine environments that once covered large parts of Europe, and its fossils have been found especially in regions that are now part of Germany, such as the Swabian Jura. Like many bivalves, Ceromya aalensis was a filter feeder that lived on or within the seafloor, obtaining its food from particles suspended in the water. Its shell was typically oval to elongated in shape, relatively thick, and often shows fine growth lines that provide insights into its development. Colors on photos may differ slightly from the original due to technical reasons.
