Caption

An illustrated life reconstruction of Magnuviator ovimonsensis at the Egg Mountain site as it may have appeared in the Cretaceous Period 75 million years ago. Magnuviator eats a wasp, and on the ground is a tooth from the bird-like dinosaur Troodon. The arid-adapted plant is based on fossil pollen found near Egg Mountain.
