Description: | Peterborough [district, Cambridgeshire], [England] [probably ex.] [Bed 10 (Hudson & Martill, 1994)], Oxford Clay [Formation, Peterborough Member, ("Gryphaea and Reptile Beds")], [*Kosmoceras jason jason* Zone],[Middle Callovian], [Jurassic (Middle)] Squamosal fragment correctly identified by SC Moss on 8/12/99 - previously misidentified as a 'quadrato-jugal/parietal?'. Both pterygoids, both quadrates, and both stapes (all told only 2 parts) added to loan 2271 to SC Moss on 7/5/99 - returned, with severe cracking to left pterygoid (and its plaster/clay restoration by Rod Smith), presumably through being stored in too dry an environment - difference can be seen when comparing to photographs in Rod Smith's paper. Loan 2300 (28/7/99, for 2 months until 1/10/99 - returned 26/8/99) Stephen C. Moss/Earth Sciences MSc includes this basisphenoid. So many components have been fixed with plaster and animal glue (presumably by Rod P. Smith during his 1976 project), that there are only 5 separate parts. Note that the identification of this specimen rests in part on the identification of the vertically sheared bone with the Leeds number 170 as the missing partial parietal. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | VERTTETRREPTIL : ICHTHYICHTHY : FOSSIL : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
