Description: | Straparollus was a gastropod (sea snail) that lived during the Devonian period. Gastropods have a body that looks a bit like a large slug, and live inside a coiled shell that they carry on their back. The body of the gastropod can be completely withdrawn into the shell. The shell of Straparollus has a flattened, coiled shape unlike other species which are shaped more like an ice-cream cone. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | fossils natural world | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
