Trilobite Exopodite Measurements and Biomass Calculations

A supplemental table of trilobite exopodite measurements and biomass calculations, published by Sarah R. Losso on figshare in April 2026. The data likely contains morphometric and biomass calculations related to trilobite respiratory structures.

Use Cases

• Analyzing correlations between trilobite exopodite morphology and estimated biomass (inferred from domain, verify after download)
• Testing hypotheses about respiratory function in fossil arthropods (inferred from domain, verify after download)
• Building comparative datasets for arthropod paleo-morphometrics (inferred from domain, verify after download)

Strengths
