Geo‐inspiration explores the potential of naturally occurring earth materials as an inspiration for the creation, design and utilization of brand‐new materials and products. It draws on 4.5 billion years of earth history, over which time our planet has evolved significantly, with the formation of an ever‐increasing number of minerals. Through time these have combined in different ways to form rocks—with...
A thin layer of Middle Triassic Otter Sandstone recently exposed on south‐west England's East Devon coast produced abundant and diverse vertebrate fossils, including previously unrecorded taxa. Some of the remains are remarkably complete, allowing CT scanning of Otter Sandstone fossils for the first time. Here we discuss the formation of this assemblage and summarize the preserved fauna, which provides...
Dead shells are common allochthonous clasts on British beaches. How much information of relevance to palaeontology can be gleaned from such bioclasts? One exceptional shell, a common Buccinum, is described, which preserves an array of borings and other ichnological evidence. It provides confirmation that we need to look harder at fossil gastropods, too.
