Evidence for being preserved in situ in a burrow. Alternative view of the holotype TA1126 showing its wider context in the matrix. The sediments surrounding the scorpion outline and define a putative burrow around this scorpion (delimitated by a white dotted line), which was discovered immediately below a woody gymnosperm root (cf. Fig. 4); whereby red-coloured clay appears to have been washed into the burrow entrance (arrow indicates direction of clay illuviation). Image taken under polarised light. Scale bar 10 mm
