For #FossilFriday, let's get away from ankylosaurs! I got to get up and personal with this placodont Sinocyamodus from the Upper Triassic Xiaowa Formation of southwest China a few years ago. @JeremyBRoberts @ChinaDaily @utahgeological
Happy #FossilFriday! #Dromaeosaurs (#raptors) have large sickle-like claws on their feet. Like today’s hawks, these #Cretaceous predatory #dinosaurs may have used their claws to grasp prey.
Found my first eurypterid (that I can talk about) for #FossilFriday. Silurian, can’t pin down the formation, but supposed to be Hughmilleria sp. Head on the left, tail on the right but there’s a blob of stuff in the bottom left/center I can’t make out. Any #eurypterid folks know?
Today is an exciting #FossilFriday: we open our revamped dinosaur gallery here @ROMtoronto, and welcome the original fossil Zuul to its permanent home. Please come say hi to #DinoZuul!
#FossilFriday: Three different proboscideans, from left to right. Deinotherium, Gomphotherium and Notiomastodon. On display at the British Museum of Natural History, London.
#FossilFriday The awesome new article in @ScienceMagazine adds more evidence for the validity of Nanotyrannus by showing that the hyoid bone in the holotype (CMNH 7541) has adult bone histology. Here are some images showing the ceratobranchial bone in place in the skull. 🦖
Traveling through South America, I've seen many fossils big and small. So I find it fitting to start my own #FossilFriday posts! Macrauchenia, one of the last and largest of the litopterns, a South American lineage that is totally extinct. Apparently, Macrauchenia had some nose..
Happy #FossilFriday here is Dinornis a genus of Giant Moa that lived in New Zeland until as recently as the 1500s. Dinornis itself was the tallest bird to ever live with females standing 10 feet tall, a phenomenon known as reverse sexual dimorphism #PrehistoricPlanetIceAge
#FossilFriday With the new Nanotyrannus paper out, I decide to dedicate a mini-thread to the Cleveland holotype skull (CMNH 7541), which has been found to belong to a mature individual, after all. 1/9
#FossilFriday! Sometimes fossil prep calls for creativity. We usually brace fossils in sandboxes while gluing, but this Pachyrhinosaurus parietal bar is far too big for any of our boxes. So, sandbags are stepping in to support it while the glue sets.
Gaining evolution insight from...a Neanderthal's nose? Get a closer look at our "sturdy evolutionary cousin" this #FossilFriday! nautil.us/human-evolutio…
Happy #FossilFriday! I am absolutely thrilled to share the first new exhibit for the History Museum at the Castle to feature specimens from the Weis collection: bird evolution, flourite, & quartz. Many thanks to B Danz, T Green, & J Taylor for their photos & art!
Was the Griffin legend recounted by Herodotus related to fossils of beaked dinosaurs? This video explains the theory. #FossilFriday youtube.com/watch?v=INU6Qn…
Segueixo amb les hienes! Copròlits de hiena, possiblement de hiena gegant (Pachycrocuta brevirostris), descoberts al Barranc de la Boella (Plistocè Inferior final, 1 Ma-780 Ka BP; La Canonja, Tarragonès) i exposats a @espaimammuthus. #FossilFriday #Pleistocene #Carnivora
