Figure 1 in Exceptionally preserved beetles in a Triassic coprolite of putative dinosauriform origin
Figure 1. Contents of coprolite fragment ZPAL AbIII/3520 (A) The coprolite rendered semi-transparent with inclusions, such as beetle remains and fibrous networks, representing fungal colonies or algae visible. Top corner: silhouette of Silesaurus opolensis, the most probable coprolite producer. (B–D) The holotype specimen of Triamyxa coprolithica in ventral (B), lateral (C), and dorsal (D) views. (E and F) The second complete specimen in ventral (E) and anterior (F) views. Individual ventrites are indicated by roman numerals. (G) Triamyxa coprolithica preserved in various degrees of disarticulation. (H) An isolated head and two elytra that do not belong to Triamyxa coprolithica but to slightly larger beetles that were also ingested by the coprolite producer. (I) Examples of individual remains of Triamyxa coprolithica (meso- and metaventrite, head, head attached to pronotum, and three pronota). (J) Two of numerous elytra of similar size and morphology attributed to T. coprolithica. (K) Fibrous structures interpreted as fungi or algae. (L) Apossible decomposed wood fragment. Color coding: blue, eyes; purple, antennae; light purple, legs. Abbreviations: abd, abdomen; ant, antenna; cox, coxa; ey, eye; fem, femur; hd, head; lgs, legs; pp, propleuron; thx, thorax; tib, tibia; troch, trochanter; trs, tarsi; ventr, ventrites.
