EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an impressive impression of the extinct dragonfly-like insect, Erasipteron bolsoveri. Discovered in 1978 by Malcolm Spenser in the Bolsover coal mine in the United Kingdom, this remarkable fossil is a testament to the rich biosphere that once thrived during the Carboniferous period. As an invertebrate and a member of the Arthropoda class, Erasipteron bolsoveri shares common traits with modern-day dragonflies, belonging to the Odonata order and the Anisoptera suborder. However, its distinct features set it apart from its living counterparts. With its hexapod body structure, this ancient creature boasts a pair of large, intricately veined wings that are preserved in stunning detail in this print. The Erasipteron species is classified within the Erasipteridae family, and this particular specimen, Erasipteron bolsoveri, is named after the location of its discovery. This fossil is now proudly housed in the British Museum, where it continues to inspire awe and fascination among researchers and visitors alike. The impression captured in this print offers a glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the evolutionary history of dragonflies and their ancestors. It serves as a reminder of the vast diversity of life that has existed on Earth and the importance of preserving and studying our planet's rich fossil record.
