Influence of microbial biofilms on the preservation of primary soft tissue in fossil and extant archosaurs.
<h4>Background</h4>Mineralized and permineralized bone is the most common form of fossilization in the vertebrate record. Preservation of gross soft tissues is extremely rare, but recent studies have suggested that primary soft tissues and biomolecules are more commonly preserved within...
