Cover image from Guilbault et al. (this issue), Figure 11.19. Ramulina siphonifera. Two-image composite showing Ramulina siphonifera specimens clustering on Farrea occa meshwork. This view includes two specimens of Lobatula mckannai and one of Gaudryina accelerata (in the right hand part of the picture). For enlargement of full image click on image.
The staff at PE was taken with this image. We fancy that the sponge meshwork is similar to the web-like meshwork behind our logo. Perhaps our readers are growing on and in that meshwork, just like these forams.
The sample is from National Collection of Invertebrate and Plant Fossils, Geological Survey of Canada, Ottawa ON, Canada.
