Thanks Kevin. They were interesting photos. Just how exactly do you determine muscle scars on the surface of those ammonite casts? They look mildly worn, so how do you differentiate between wear and tear and genuine muscle attachments?
If interested there is a much fuller version of the article I referenced above at:
http://216.239.51.100/search?q=cach...ks/text.pdf+"ammonite+anatomy"&hl=en&ie=UTF-8
This version has a discussion and bibliography section.
Glad you like my little Anomalocaris (now Laggania). It's a little clay model I made at home and superimposed onto an appropriate background. I would love to start up a discussion on this bizarre Cambrian predator but as the thing was probably an arthropod and most certainly not a cephalopod I can't really do it here. Perhaps Tony could start up a TONMOCARIS page for us?
