Big Meg is a Scorpion
Interesting fossil story today from IOL:
She was “Big Meg”, the largest of all spiders that ever strode the Earth.
The 300-million-year-old fossil was so famous that plaster casts of her body are on display in numerous museums and copies can be purchased over the Internet for hundreds of dollars apiece.
As for the original, it was carefully locked away from public view. It was so precious that it was placed in a bank vault pending the outcome of an ownership squabble.
Alas… a quarter of a century after the historic find, it transpires that Megarachne servinei was never a spider, but a rather odd-looking and certainly less exotic species of sea scorpion.
As Drew Curtis said “Ladies and Gentlemen, we already got one of those!”
