(b) Flat extended thoracopygon with separated cephalon (BGEG-WJ18-03). (c) Separated cephalon overlapping enrolled thoracopygon (BGEG-WJ18-05). (d) Cephalon separated from thorax, pygidium is not preserved, external mold (BGEG-WJ18-01). (e) Flat extended thoracopygon, with separated inverted cephalon (BGEG-WJ18-06). (f) Cephalon separated from thoracopygon and rotated at a small angle (BGEG-WJ18-04). (g) Cephalon separated from thoracopygon and rotated at a large angle (BGEG-WJ-77).
