Voxel renderings of specimens of Euphthiracaroidea (left columns) and Phthiracaroidea (right columns) in open (middle columns) and (nearly) encapsulated state (outer columns). First row: antero-ventral view. Second row: ventral view. Third row: lateral view. Fourth row: virtual X-ray image, lateral view. The arrow points towards the legs inside the animal in encapsulated state. Note the muscles attached to the legs responsible for retraction during encapsulation
