Carbotubulus: Measurement, Classification & Discovery and naming

Carbotubulus is a genus of lobopodian known from the Carboniferous Carbondale Formation of the Mazon Creek area from the state of Illinois, in the United States. A monotypic genus, it contains one species: Carbotubulus waloszeki, and is known from a single fossil. Overall, the animal had a very tubular body. Its head, trunk, and 10 pairs of limbs (9 of…
