Regarding TCP Previous Segment Lost

Hi,

Can anyone offer a potential scenario that would explain why the highlighted packets are occurring in a stream that 
they do not appear to correspond to? I'm new to analyzing network traffic and can't understand why the sequence number 
would transition in such a way mid-connection. Wireshark lists these packets as Previous Segment Lost/Retransmission 
but they appear to be unrelated to the connection.

Thanks in advance,

Zach
