A Late Devonian Period Ichthyostega submerged in a floodplain
A Late Devonian Ichthyostega submerged in a floodplain 365 million years ago in what is today the Canadian Arctic. The tree-like trunk immediately behind the Ichthyostega is the base of a Pleuromeia. The Ichthyostega is eyeing a drowned centipede.
Ichthyostega was one of the earliest tetrapods, a descendent of lobe-finned fishes and ancestor of amphibians. Ichthyostega had lungs and seven-toed limbs that allowed it to move about the shallow waters and shores of swamps and floodplains. It was among the first terrestrial vertebrates

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back 365 million years ago to the Late Devonian Period in what is now the Canadian Arctic. Here, we witness an extraordinary scene unfolding beneath the water's surface. A magnificent Ichthyostega, one of the earliest tetrapods and a precursor to amphibians, gracefully glides through a flooded plain. The Ichthyostega's seven-toed limbs and lung adaptation allowed it to navigate both shallow waters and swampy shores with ease. As it elegantly moves forward, its keen eyes fixate on a drowned centipede nearby. This ancient creature showcases remarkable survival skills as it hunts for sustenance amidst this prehistoric ecosystem. Behind our protagonist lies the base of a Pleuromeia, resembling a tree trunk rising from the depths. These plants were abundant during this era and served as vital components of this primeval landscape. Through this visually stunning illustration created by Walter Myers, we are reminded of Earth's rich evolutionary history and how life has adapted over millions of years. It serves as a reminder that our planet has been home to countless fascinating species long before humans walked its surface. This image captures not only the beauty but also the fragility of these extinct creatures' existence, offering us glimpses into their world while igniting our curiosity about Earth's past wonders.
