Brontoscorpio

Brontoscorpio anglicus is a species of fossil scorpion. Its remains were discovered in Upper Silurian-aged sandstone from Trimpley, Worcestershire, and the species was described on the basis of an incomplete single free finger of a pedipalp, almost 10 centimetres long. The complete animal is estimated to have been at least 90 centimetres long. Its carnivorous diet may have consisted of worms or other arthropods.
