Description: | Synocladia virgulacea was a bryozoan (sea mat or moss animal) that made its home on a reef in the Zechstein Sea 250 million years ago. This sea streched from what is now north east England to Germany and Poland. Bryozoans are animals that live in colonies. When they were alive, the tiny bryozoan animals, that looked a bit like small sea anemones, lived in the fan-shaped structure that has been fossilised. | 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 |
