Notes from the Museum: November 2010
http://museumoftheearth.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 18, 2010. Fossil of the Week. 11/18/10 – Ultraviolet Cone. This week’s fossil is a cone snail from the Plio-Pleistocene of Florida (5.3 to 1.8 million years ago). It is shown here under ultraviolet light, which reveals the original color pattern of the bleached shell that looks chalky white under normal light. The PRI collections are particularly rich in shells such as this from the Pliocene and Pleistocene epochs of the Gulf and Atlantic Coastal Plains. So of what use are these colors?
