The museum possesses tens of thousands of invertebrate fossils. More than half of these were collected in North-East Italy, whilst others come from fossiliferous sites elsewhere in Italy, Europe and beyond.<\/p>\n

These finds are of fundamental use in reconstructing the history of life on Earth and the geological and climatic evolution of our planet over the last 500 million years.<\/p>\n

Certain groups of invertebrate fossils — such as trilobites and ammonites — are also extremely helpful in establishing the age of the sedimentary rocks that contain them.<\/p>\n

One of the strengths of this collection is that it illustrates the many different types of fossilisation.<\/p>\n

The exceptional preservation of some items is truly remarkable: the delicate wings of a dragonfly that lived 150 million years ago, a squid in which the ink sac can still be seen, and many more besides.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6753,"template":"","sezione":[34],"class_list":["post-7430","collezione","type-collezione","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sezione-geologia-e-paleontologia"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nInvertebrate Fossils Collection - Museum of Nature and Humankind - University of Padua<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/visitmnu.it\/collezioni-e-ricerca\/collezioni\/gli-invertebrati-fossili\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Invertebrate Fossils Collection - Museum of Nature and Humankind - University of Padua\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The museum possesses tens of thousands of invertebrate fossils.
