The array of fossils were found about 25 years
Mon May 27, 2024 1:55 am
The array of fossils were found about 25 years ago by palaeontologist Elizabeth Smith and her daughter Clytie while they were going through the discards of an opal mine.
They donated the specimens - estimated to be about 100 million years old - to the Australian Museum, where they sat forgotten in a drawer until about two years ago.
Prof Flannery, a mammalogist, says he stumbled across them and immediately knew they were from ancient monotremes.
Some of the bones belonged to the already-discovered Steropodon galmani, a shorter, stumpier and toothier ancestor of the platypus.
