EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking fossil print showcases the well-preserved remains of a Rana species frog, hailing from the soft Miocene shale formations of Spain. The fossil's skeletal anatomy is clearly visible, with an outline of the soft parts delicately etched into the rock. Measuring an impressive 12 cms in length, this ancient amphibian is a testament to the rich biodiversity that once thrived in Europe during the Cenozoic Era. Belonging to the Lissamphibia order, this fossilized frog is a member of the Neobatrachia suborder and the Ranidae family, which includes modern-day true frogs and toads. The presence of this fossil in Miocene sedimentary rock, specifically shale, provides valuable insights into the evolutionary history of the Anura group, which emerged during the Phanerozoic period. The intricate details of this fossil, captured in the sedimentary rock, offer a glimpse into the morphology and anatomy of this prehistoric creature. The fossilized frog's skeletal structure is reminiscent of its modern-day counterparts, with distinct features such as the elongated limbs, webbed feet, and bulbous eyes. Richard Fortey, renowned British paleontologist and author, once said, "Fossils are the key to the past." This Rana species fossil serves as a poignant reminder of the rich history and diversity of life that has come before us. The fossilized frog's discovery in Spain adds to our understanding of the European fauna during the Miocene epoch and sheds light on the evolutionary journey of the Anura group.
