For my first post on this the fantastic appendages of Anomalocaris magnabasis! Unlike Anomalocaris canandensis, A. magnabasis had a bunch of thin “spinules” projecting from the front side of each spine, used to help snare soft prey.

Predation on Anomalocarids is hardly speculative. We have one fossil which either shows part of the (very) dangerous appendage of Omnidens, or, a chunk of Anomalocarid in the mouth of Omnidens. Either way, it must have eaten Anomalocarids.

(Its in the bottom illustration)

The Burgess was home to several genera of Hurdiid anomalocarids, which survived by filtering food out of the fine silt, brine seeps, and water column, using comb-like frontal appendages. These include Peytoia, Stanleycaris, two species of Hurdia, and Cambroraster elsewhere.

Laminacaris chimera, a strange intersection between the Hurdiid Anomalocarids and the Amplectobeluids, inhabited the waters of the Chengjiang sea 518 million years ago. Described by , , and their colleagues in 2018.

They’re the ancestors of bugs. Modern Lobopods include tardigrades and velvet worms, but their extinct forms include Hallucigenia, Anomalocaris, Opabinia, et cetera. The first image of these four is my reconstruction of Acinocrinus

This new critter is fascinating; related to the predator Anomalocaris and filter-feeder Aegirocassis but living like neither, it seems to be a mud-grubbing sweep-feeder, like some of the eurypterids that evolved later in the Paleozoic.

Drew an Anomalocaris. I think I'm starting to understand how shading and lighting works.

Check out this Nebalia - they first appeared in the fossil record in the Cambrian and are likely primitive examples of ancient Malacostracans. The are the only extant members of the subclass Phyllocarida. So cool to see!

Unused Anomalocaris sprite for Tierzoo. Probably not too many of these in the world.

El modelo del Anomalocaris, al parecer había varias especies de estos, le hice la cabeza menos larga que las referencias para darle ese look más como de trilobite, hoy toca pasarlo a lowpoly y tal vez riggear

Aegirocassis was the largest Anomalocarid known to exist, and it had many blimp-like qualities. This drawing I made is meant to evoke images of the Hindenburg. Grey scale Anomalocarids are great.
