The “elongate chelicera problem”: A virtual approach in an extinct pterygotid sea scorpion from a 3D kinematic point of view

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
How pterygotid sea scorpions used their tripartite elongate cheliceres to get prey items close to the mouth region remains a conundrum. We applied four different 3D kinematic settings with regard to insertion and orientation of the cheliceres to examine the most likely way this was realized.
