Fossile Hornmilbe im Bernstein erstmals untersucht

Faszinierende Bilder aus dem Synchroton machen innere Strukturen sichtbar

(PresseBox) (Tübingen, )
Einem Team aus deutschen und amerikanischen Biologen und Physikern unter der Leitung von Michael Heethoff (Abteilung für Evolutionsbiologie der Invertebraten an der Universität Tübingen) ist es gelungen, Bernstein-Mikrofossilien mit Synchrotron-Röntgen-Strahlen zu untersuchen und dabei erstmals auch innere Strukturen zu beschreiben. Diese Ergebnisse wurden in der Januarausgabe des amerikanischen Fachblatts Journal of Paleontology veröffentlicht, deren Titelbild ein Röntgenbild der beschriebenen Hornmilbe ziert.

Über 15 Millionen Jahre ruhte ein kleiner Bernstein aus dem Harz einer längst ausgestorbenen Baumart (Hymenaea protera) in der El-Mamey Formation der Dominikanischen Republik, bis Anfang der 1990er Jahre amerikanische Wissenschaftler darin Kleinstfossilien aus der Gruppe der Hornmilben (Oribatida) ogienyyfcf.
