Chemical, experimental, and morphological evidence for diagenetically altered melanin in exceptionally preserved fossils

In living organisms, color patterns, behavior, and ecology are closely linked. Thus, detection of fossil pigments may permit inferences about important aspects of ancient animal ecology and evolution. Melanin-bearing melanosomes were suggested to preserve as organic residues in exceptionally preserv...
