Nature's Time Capsules: Segmenting Beetles in Coprolite
Beetles are said to have been around as early as the Carboniferous period (ca. 360–300 million years ago), but because trees only started producing enough resin for amber in the Early Cretaceous (ca. 130 million years ago), fossil records of beetles before then have been scarce—that is, until 3D scanning and CT analysis made it possible to reconstruct beetle remains in dinosauriform coprolites. Join Martin Qvarnström and his team at Uppsala University as they uncover these prehistoric secrets and, using VGSTUDIO MAX, piece together part of a timeline 230 million years ago.
