-Horned crocodilians- I hope you are all having a great #worldcrocodileday For this year's celebration, I bring this poster that compiles 4 crocodilian species, extinct and alive, that have developed "horns" (elevated lobes of the squamosal bones).
I don't often do digital but here's a little Work in Progress bonus points for those that recognize all the taxa
‑C. rhombifer hunting Megalocnus‑ My documentary on the natural history, biology and conservation of the Cuban crocodile is now available on my new youtube channel. If you are interested in crocodiles or just like animals, give it a try! youtube.com/watch?v=ED9vzs…
Congratulations to @cabahCoE's Ariana Lambrides on leading this exciting new work creating an open access 3D database for zooarchaeological fish reference collections! @joristevs @WeisbeckerLab @Zoelenotherium @jcu @jcuCASE doi.org/10.1080/031224…
Great to see the publication of Fishboneviz, a digital 3D reference collection on fish! It’s been a pleasure to contribute to this awesome project led by Ariana Lambrides. @WeisbeckerLab @SeanUlm @Zoelenotherium tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
A male Voay robustus rests with a female C. niloticus during the breeding season about 1000 years ago. He´s blissfully unaware that he is the last member of his species, but that's okay. What's extinction compared to the love of a lady and the warm rays of the sun on your face?
'Twinning in a wild breeding population of Gharials (Gavialis gangeticus) in India' by Ugemuge et al. (2024) has recently been published in #ReptilesandAmphibians: doi.org/10.17161/randa… #Herpetology #Reptiles #Crocodilians
Fresh ink! We look at how the skulls of rock-wallabies change with size and how size influences jaw anatomy and biting ability The tiniest species seem to be particularly good at biting @WeisbeckerLab @MegL_Martin royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…
Our new paper @JournalSystPal, led by @NilsChabrol, revising the extinct South Asian species Crocodylus palaeindicus, with implications for its relationship with the mugger crocodile and crocodyloid evolution (with @amjukar + Rajeev Patnaik) 🐊 @ES_UCL tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
#TopDownloadedArticle I was just notified that my paper "Cranial anatomy of the mekosuchine crocodylian Trilophosuchus rackhami Willis, 1993" was one of the most downloaded articles in @AnatRecord that were published in 2022! anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
And so the Riversleigh stream concluded! Lots of weird marsupials in this one. Since we chose to depict here a Miocene faunal zone you will not come across your typical Australian megafauna, like Diprotodon and Dromornis, that stuff came later.
Finished with one of the commissions I have been working on, the Australian Pleistocene crocodilian Quinkana fortirostrum.
Happy #FossilFriday! Meet Boverisuchus, the amazing crocodyliform from Europe & North America (about 45 million yrs ago). It was well-adapted for hunting on land, w/ long legs held under the body, a shorter tail & hoof-like toes + it had serrated teeth! Likely prey: early horses!
Very excited to have been part of this study on the endocranial structures of Voay robustus published today in @JournalofAnat with @HautierLionel, @vinfernand and others. A little thread below, paper available #OpenAccess here: doi.org/10.1002/ar.253… 🚨🐊🚨
Not sure if a Christmas goose will be on your table, but here's an interesting domestic Chinese goose skull. It's a species of "knob goose," named for the casque on its face. Fun to find the source of the knob's pneumaticity, which we first identified in ostrich back in 2008
