Discovery of Fossils 72 Million Years Ago, Evidence of Ancient Creatures Surviving Mass Extinction

Recently, scientists have identified a species of land snail that has long been extinct, with an age of 72 million years based on its fossil. This new species, named Ferussina petofiana, is part of a small group of land snails that existed in the Paleogene era.

The following translation is provided while preserving the HTML tags: This finding originates from the Hațeg Basin, Romania, indicating that this snail lived approximately 72 million years ago, during the Maastrichtian age at the end of the Cretaceous period. This snail belongs to its family, namely Ferussinidae, which is part of the larger group Cyclophoroidea.

According to Dr. Barna Páll-Gergely from the HUN-REN Agricultural Research Center, previously, Ferussina was only found in the Paleogene geological layers in Western Europe, including France, Germany, Switzerland, and northern Italy, from the Middle Eocene to the Upper Oligocene, possibly even until the Upper Miocene.

"The new species is the oldest species, as well as the easternmost representative of its genus," said Dr. Barna.

The translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags is as follows: "The size of this snail shell is about 10.8 mm in diameter and has a height of about 4.4 mm. "The shell is flat with a flat base, a domed dorsal surface, and a rounded or slightly shouldered body," said the paleontologist."

This species is only known from one specimen found in the Densuș-Ciula Formation in Romania. The uppermost limestone deposits in western Romania are famous for vertebrate fossil fauna, including the first described dwarf dinosaurs over a hundred years ago. Nevertheless, rare invertebrate and plant findings also come from this layer.
