Lomankus specimensGizmodo
•77% Informative
Fossilized remains belong to an extinct arthropod dubbed Lomankus edgecombei, which died about 450 million years ago .
The fossilized remains were found near Rome , New York , in a fossil-rich area known as Beecher ’s Bed.
They were fossilized in iron pyrite, a different and admittedly less precious metal than its lustrous yellow counterpart.
The fossils are rare examples of specimens that are as informative as pretty.
