ARCHAEOLOGY: pre-Flood sea scorpion

"About 460 million years ago, a sea scorpion about the size of an adult human swam
around in the prehistoric waters that covered modern-day Iowa, likely dining on bivalves and squishy eel-like creatures, a new study finds.
The ancient sea sccorpions are eurypterids, a type of arthropod that is closely related to modern arachnids and horseshoe crabs. The findings — which include at least 20 specimen...

Researchers dubbed the newfound species Pentecopterus decorahensis, named for Greek warships (penteconter) and the Greek word for wings (pterus) because the sea scorpion was likely a top predator that sped through the water, the researchers said. The species name also honors the Iowa city of Decorah, where the fossils were uncovered.
"The best way to describe this animal is bizarre," Lamsdell told Live Science. "For a long time, I had trouble being sure that this was one species because there are so many strange things about it." msn

1) "Pre-historic waters" are the pre-flood waters.
2) It resembles, as if related, to the modern arachnids because they are related, and NOT by "evolution".
3) Yes, Iowa at one time, as was rest of the world, covered by WATER.
4) Pre-flood creatures, many at least, were larger than today. It has to do with genetics, isolation and variation as well as other genetic factors.
5) "Bizarre"? mmm...maybe, depends on your definition I guess....
