Three-dimensional plan view model from above of the excavation at the level of the palaeosol. Roots and trunks of the trees are shown interspersed with various animal fossils; all presumed to be close to their original life position. The original positions of the two complete scorpion fossils are arrowed, whereby the holotype was found beneath a gymnosperm complex root system in its original burrow. The scorpions, one trigonotarbid and the snails were all found at the same paleosol level. Image courtesy of Volker Annacker
