Spines and baskets in apex predatory sea scorpions uncover unique feeding strategies using 3D-kinematics
Megalograptidae and Mixopteridae with elongate, spinose prosomal appendages are unique early Palaeozoic sea scorpions (Eurypterida). These features were presumably used for hunting, an untested hypothesis. Here, we present 3D model-based kinematic range of motion (ROM) analyses of Megalograptus ohio...
