Misszhouia longicudata - Fossilplattenmatrix - Misszhouia longicudata
Period: Early Cambrian 518MA
Origin: China, Yunnan, Chengjiang biota
Size: 4 cm
A nearly perfectly preserved fossil of Misszhouia longicudata, in which the cephalic shield and trunk shields are clearly delineated. A central canal, interpreted as the main digestive tract, runs longitudinally through the organism and features small, protruding lateral tubes. The cephalic and dorsal shields were minimally mineralized and thus easily peeled away, exposing the internal digestive system of the specimen.
The Misszhouia longicudata is interpreted as either a carnivore or a scavenger, using its articulated appendages to navigate the near-seafloor environment.
