Cordaitean Predation Photos 2019: Unmounted Peels, Wild Cones. Peel 19B
Abstract
Cone maturity is as follows- cone A, mature (picture 1); cone B, basal section (picture 2, left); cone C, basal section (picture 2, right). Cone A contained a single golden coprolite within its scales and in the matrix. Plate 19B is a successive peel taken from the same coal ball as other plates labeled 19.
Description
These images were used in the research for a master's thesis from the Texas A&M University Dept. of Geology and Geophysics (Date of submission: May 2020).Images were taken from unmounted peels of coal balls.
Cone A is an mature cone
Cone B and C are basal sections.
A single golden coprolite was identified in cone A and the matrix.
Peels were made by Anne Raymond, the advisor for this thesis.
