FIGURE 6. Computed tomographic images of a Burejospermum seymourense cocoon wall (NRMS089729) generated from Synchrotron-radiation-based X-Ray tomographic microscopy (SRXTM) at the TOMCAT beamline of the Swiss Light Source at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland. 1, Isosurface rendering of cocoon's external surface showing mineral grains embedded in hapsine. 2, Isosurface rendering of cocoon's internal surface showing creasing caused by alytine threads. Arrow indicates the position of a hollow tube within the alytine. 3, 4, Longitudinal orthoslice sections, at different focal planes, of a tube within the alytine showing pseudosegmentation. 5–8, Translucent volume rendering of a tube within the alytine imaged at different focal planes and magnifications to highlight the transverse to chevron-shaped thread arrangement lining the tube wall. 9, Isosurface rendering of hapsine outer surface showing details of the complex arrangement of hirudoin threads. 10, Transverse orthoslice section of the cocoon wall ... : Published as part of McLoughlin, Stephen, Bomfleur, Benjamin, Mörs, Thomas & Reguero, Marcelo, 2016, Fossil clitellate annelid cocoons and their microbiological inclusions from the Eocene of Seymour Island, Antarctica, pp. 1-27 in Palaeontologia Electronica 11 (1) on page 11, DOI: 10.26879/607, http://zenodo.org/record/13331733 ...
