EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image, we are transported back in time to the Ordovician period of North America, over 450 million years ago, to behold the solitary splendor of a remarkable coral specimen: the horn coral, Streptelasma. Measuring nearly 4 cm in length, this ancient invertebrate, belonging to the class Anthozoa and order Ruggida, is a prime example of the rugose corals, a group of hexacorallians characterized by their rugose, or wrinkled, surface texture. The Streptelasma, a solitary rugosan, is a testament to the rich biodiversity of the Paleozoic Era. Its black background highlights the intricate, hexagonal structure of its calcareous skeleton, which served as a foundation for the living coral tissue. This coelenterate, a member of the phylum Cnidaria, thrived in shallow, tropical waters teeming with life. David Lewis, a renowned paleontologist, and Paul Taylor, a skilled photographer, collaborated to capture this exquisite snapshot of prehistory. Their combined expertise and dedication to preserving the wonders of the natural world have allowed us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this ancient organism. The Streptelasma, a relic of the Phanerozoic Convergence, is a reminder of the vast array of life that has graced our planet throughout the ages. Its fossilized form, a testament to the resilience and adaptability of life, continues to inspire awe and fascination in generations to come. As we gaze upon this ancient coral, we are reminded of the intricate web of life that connects us all, from the tiniest of organisms to the grandest of ecosystems. The Streptelasma, a solitary yet significant figure in the annals of Earth's history, serves as a humbling reminder of the vast expanse of time and the myriad wonders that lie hidden within the pages of our planet's past.
