Description
Dorsal reconstruction of the bristly polychaete worm, Canadia spinosa, from the Middle Cambrian Burgess Shale of British Columbia. The feathery setae of this annelid worm are often well preserved as a silvery reflective film on the black shale matrix of the fossils. The length ranges from 2-4.5 cm.
