Description
Permian of Russia. Artwork of a scene on the shores of a lake reconstructed from fossils found in Russia dating from the Permian (299 to 251 million years ago). The plants include a group of Araucaria trees, some proto-gymnosperm trees (order Noeggerathiales), and some cycads. A pair of Dimetrodon synapsids are at centre left. At lower right, on the tip of a horsetail (Equisetum), is a caloneurodean insect (Paleuthygramma tenuicornis). At bottom left, resting on a rock, is a small arachnid (order Uraraneida) with a tail (flagellum). At upper left is the insect Sylvohymen sibiricus (order Megasecoptera).
