COCKROACH
Age: 108 – 92 million years old
Size: Wing span 23 mm (0.9 in) ; matrix: 128 mm (5 in) by 128 mm ( 5 in)
Location: Nova Olinda Member, Ceara, Brazil
Formation: Crato Formation
Period: Lower Cretaceous, Upper Aptian Cenomanian
Brazil's Araripe Basin is home to a fantastic array of exquisitely-
detailed Early Cretaceous fossils, some of which have been preserved
in three dimensions. The pronotum (head shield) and the venation of
the wings of this cockroach can be examined in detail.
This fossil, typical of the cockroaches alive 108 to 92 million years ago, is the
same as ones living today, which shows that the theory of evolution is invalid.
