Size[edit]

What was the size of Alalcomenaeus? (Gould's Wonderful Life would probably answer this question, but I can't find my copy.) — Athaenara ✉ 22:03, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure it would have been well enough known in Gould's time... anyhow, it reached about 6cm in length. Martin (Smith609 – Talk) 22:33, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. — Athaenara ✉ 22:40, 27 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
