Summary

Description
English: Falsified fossil of a meganeurid dragonfly. The falsification is evident from the incorrect structure of the thoracic and abdominal segments, and the incorrect position of the wing bases at the wrong segments. Furthermore, there exists no meganeurid fossil that is likewise complete. Clarification regarding it's being false given by Dr. Günter Bechly.
