Illustrations of opalized termite coprolites from the Griman Creek Formation, Lightning Ridge (all images of specimen AM F 128064). A, Overview of specimen. B, Details of irregularly arranged pellets. C, Details of hexagonally prismatic faecal pellets. D, Details of faecal pellets and remnants of intervening clays and opaline silica. E, Greyscale tomographic (μCT) reconstruction of fossil frass showing a mix of pellets with uniform and hollow interiors; hexagonal shape is evident in the cross-section in the coprolite on the right. F, Greyscale tomographic reconstruction of fossil frass showing pellets in longitudinal (oblong) and transverse (hexagonal) section. G, Greyscale tomographic (µCT) reconstruction of fossil frass showing pellets held together by porous clays or opaline silica. H, Scanning electron micrograph of hexagonally prismatic coprolites. I, Scanning electron micrograph of hexagonally prismatic coprolites with blunt termini. J, Scanning electron micrograph of coprolites showing details of truncate termini. Scale bars equal 10 mm for A; 1 mm for B–G; 500 µm for H–J.	FIGURE 2.
