I havent found any trilobites near Philadelphia, with the exception on a three hour trip up towards the shale in Pennsylvania... any suggestions? Thank you for your dedication and sharing you nailed it!!
Love your vids. Just a note that you slaughtered the pronunciation of Hallucigenia from the Burgess Shale made famous by Mr. Gould in Wonderful Life. Great content. Thanks.
Being Latin/Greek is a poor excuse. It's not that hard to look at the letters, determine the phonemes, and sound them out. Unless he's dyslexic, he's just not trying. Disgusting
@@JENKEM1000 whatever be the reason... Let's not forget that he uploaded a very good lecture. It really helps better the understanding.. I wasn't able to get through the topics.. let's just be thankful and not disgusted..
youre right, and actually it think most mandibles started out as modified legs, but for centipedes that's not their true mandibles, the mandibles they talk about here must be the ones that are right in its mouth. The point is that they can chew, that differs them from spiders for example which have to slurp but they also differ in that they process no antennae
More informative than any documentary out there, wish I had found your channel sooner.
Kankakee river and rock creek Illinois are full of trilobites, also huge ones in Missouri.
Awesome, lots of great trilobites out there to discover! Illinois has some amazing Paleozoic sites!

answer; they are trilobites and other fossil arthropods.
It sounds like pronouncing latin/greek names is not your favourite part of paleontology ^^.
that is what happens when you only hear foreign languages as an adult

He mangles a lot of species and geologic names (KUR-taceous) but these videos are great regardless.
@@LanceHall The somewhat frequent mention of myopodia was confusing for a bit, but then it became clear that was referencing myriapoda.
I thought centipedes' pinchers are modified legs and not mandibles
