Exceptional preservation of eye structure in arthropod visual predators from the Middle Jurassic
Understanding how ancient animals perceived their environment is difficult due to a lack of fossilized eye structures. Here, the authors reconstruct the compound eye of a 160-million-year old thylacocephalan arthropod, Dollocaris, finding evidence of hunting adaptations.
