Scientific Name: "Archaeopteryx" Archaeopteryx is a Jurassic fossil bird that shares both bird and reptile features; that was once thought to be oldest known fossil bird. The specimen’s date is relatively 150 million years ago, during the late Jurassic Epoch – which is 163.5 to 145 million years ago.

Argopecten Gibbus
This species, which has a maximum width of three inches, has the same architecture and carving as the Atlantic bay scallop. The shell's two valves are cupped. Similar to other scallops, the Atlantic calico scallop's shell develops "ears" around the hinge. The Atlantic calico scallop's shell features roughly 20 radial ribs that are roughened by growth lines on a regular basis. The Atlantic calico scallop can be found from Delaware to Brazil, and commercial fishing is still done sometimes. Rather than bays, it can be found in open water up to 100 feet deep. Shells frequently wash ashore on the ocean's coastlines.

MOSASAURS
Earth Science 11
Scientific Name: "CLIDATES COPE" An extinct ancient marine lizards belonging to a family of reptiles called mosasaurs. Clidastes were 4 meters (13 feet) or longer; the head alone was about 60 cm (24 inches) long and was equipped with many sharply pointed curved teeth. The neck was short, but the body and tail were long and relatively slender. Cope discovered the first specimens in 1869 from the Mooreville Chalk in Lowndes County, Alabama. The remains unearthed were that of a juvenile but are one of the best preserved and most complete mosasaurs collected from the state and are regarded as the generic holotype of Clidastes.

Pteriomorphia includes a subclass of saltwater mussels, marine bivalve mollusks. It contains several major orders, including Arcadia, Ostreida, Pectinida, Limida, Mytilida, and Pteriida. This subclass of mollusks has lamellar gills and is epiphytic. This group includes mussels, scallops, scallops, and scallops. On the surface, they appeared to be similar to the contemporary genus Pteria's flying pearly oysters. From the Early Jurassic through the Late Cretaceous, they existed.

Brachiopods are marine animals with two shells, an upper one and a lower one. The right and left halves of each shell are mirror images, but the two shells are not exactly alike. The shells may be of lime, phosphate, or a substance, and the shells range in size from less than a fourth of an inch to several inches. Most brachiopods live attached to the sea floor by a fleshy stalk that is an extension of the soft body. Some forms lose the stalk when they become adults and either attach themselves directly to the sea floor or lie loose in the mud or sand.

Scientific Name: " Paleofeces" Coprolites, as opposed to paleofeces, are petrified animal feces. Mineral deposits such as silicates and calcium carbonates have replaced most of the original composition in coprolites, as they have in other fossils. Paleofeces, on the other hand, retain most of their original organic makeup and can be reconstituted to determine their original chemical properties, even though the term coprolite is sometimes used in archaeological contexts to refer to ancient human feces.

Scientific Name: "Pander" Conodonts are a group of extinct agnathan (jawless) vertebrates that resemble eels and are members of the Conodonta class. They were once only recognized for their isolated tooth-like oral elements, now known as conodont elements, for a long time. Knowledge of soft tissues is still limited. They lived in the world's oceans for almost 300 million years, from the Cambrian to the beginning of the Jurassic. Conodonts are widely employed as index fossils, or fossils that are used to identify and define geological periods. To avoid confusion, the animals are sometimes referred to as Conodontophora (conodont carriers).

Scientific Name: "Paradoxides" During the Middle Cambrian epoch, the genus Paradoxides produced giant to very big trilobites that were found all across the planet. Paradoxides, a Middle-Cambrian trilobite, is found in the 'Atlantic' (Avalonian) fauna. In the Paleozoic Iapetus Ocean, Avalonian rocks were deposited near a small landmass called Avalonia. Avalonian beds are currently only found in a restricted area in North America's East Coast and in Europe.
