Fossil turtle shells, or carapaces, are the preserved remains of the protective bony plates that cover a turtle’s body. These shells are composed of two main parts: the upper carapace and the lower plastron, which are connected by a bridge. Fossilized turtle shells are important in paleontology because they can provide valuable information about the morphology, taxonomy, and evolutionary history of turtles. By studying the shape, size, and arrangement of the shell plates, scientists can infer details about the turtle’s behavior, habitat, and relationships to other species. Fossil turtle shells can vary greatly in size and shape depending on the species. Some ancient turtles had highly domed shells, while others had flatter shells adapted for swimming. Overall, fossil turtle shells offer a window into the ancient world and the diversity of prehistoric turtles.
