The Burroughs Audubon Nature Club: Back from the Dead - a Zoom presentation
*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 10/10/2025
Friday, October 10, 2025, 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM: In April 2023, two off-duty staff members unearthed the remains of a mysterious and previously undescribed echinoderm while digging for trilobites at Penn Dixie Fossil Park and Nature Reserve in Hamburg. The discovery rocked the scientific community – pun intended, as this particular line of primitive animals was thought to have gone extinct nearly 30 million years earlier. Revival of this ‘Lazarus taxon,’ which originated during the Cambrian explosion when most major animal groups first appeared, sheds new light on our planet’s history of life. The new species is currently under study at the Smithsonian Institution by experts who are eager to establish its proper place in the animal kingdom. The presentation is by Dr. Phil Stokes, Executive Director, Hamburg Natural History Society/Penn Dixie. Registration is required.
