I've done a bit of diagonal reading of the wiki and it seems like the Anomalocaris is widely accepted as a genus, in both paleobiology as paleoecology.
The Opabinia are widely disputed, with scientists unable to agree on even it's biological make up and significance.
It's strange looking presence seems not to fit within any theory and therefore it's shunned, whist on discovery everybody thought it would be a missing link that would tie everything together, it's achieved the opposite.
Guess you are more of an Opabinia, huh?
Classic Opabinia
More like Nope-abinia.
Snap, so good you got downvoted!
Thanks, Opabinia
And a very good Opabinia to you too
This reminds me of an unfinished crochet project of Anomalocaris I got lying around... If anyone is interested, here is the pattern I'm using: https://www.etsy.com/de/listing/1099142450/nur-muster-anomalocaris-burgess-shale
I think I should take up crochet.
It's like a Rick and Morty episode
Hey, I recognize that guy from Dave the Diver!
