As is frequent in these videos, it's the artwork (by Joschua Knüppe) which really sells the truly bizarre qualities of this creature's physiological structure. • That singular wideband compound eye (scanning for prey like a Cylon warrior), • The massive stomach/gut (& it's Calcium-dense ligaments), • The two strange long rods of possible muscular tissue running down it's body, above/below pairs of paddle-legs, • The ginsu-knife legs dangling down near it's mouth, • But, above all else, that tall, astonishingly shaped front Carapace, built like an inverted prow of a ship (perhaps to utilise the pressure from underwater currents to push it towards the sea floor). It seems to suffering from the extremely common adaptation of aquatic arthropods converging onto a crab-like body plan and, while I do see some similarities with the gigantic *Aegirocassis benmoulai* (& several other "shrimp"-like creatures from the Cambrian & Ordovician eras), overall this seems to be a completely unique organism with a pretty remarkable body plan.

[@solounwapodemuchos]

So even in super early arthropods the carcinization process would be present eventually?

[@ArigatoPlays]

@@solounwapodemuchos Carcinization happens because the body plan of a crab is very efficient and useful for several different common niches. While the earliest arthropods didn't have all the necessary body features to truly converge on that body plan, it would certainly have proven useful for some to go in that direction with their existing features.

@@haseo8244 The Middle Devonian had some *wild* stuff, when plants were still kinda figuring out how to properly form trees and leaves and seeds and stuff. Look into the Cladoxylopsids and their descendants like Tetraxylopteris, which were trees but still relied on photosynthetic stems and had some absolutely cursed vascular structure. Or the predecessors to seed plants like Runcaria which had what was basically a seed but no seed coat (seeds also nearly convergently evolved a couple other times too). Or, the early arborescent lycopsids which basically formed trees out of bark (they eventually convergently evolved wood but they were still mostly supported by bark) and grew in a matter of years. probably my favorite period due to this, combined with the fact that Euramerica was still separate (no Pangaea yet!) and the Late Devonian hadn't come and killed off all the wacky reefs yet.
