Pangolins possess a spectacular, dense network of diploic veins for brain drainage! In our latest study, we show that this pattern may also provide rare morphological evidence linking pangolins and carnivorans in the Ferae clade. Check it out here: academic.oup.com/zoolinnean/a...

#FossilFriday Ever-growing teeth don't always mean a grass diet! New microwear analysis reveals pachyrukhines, curious rodent-like fossil mammals, were primarily fruit & seed eaters 🍴, overturning traditional assumptions. 10.0.3.248/j.palaeo.202... @palaeontosoc.bsky.social @thepalass.bsky.social

Ever-growing teeth ≠ grass diet! New study on pachyrukhine notoungulates, rodent-like fossil mammals from Argentina, shows they were mainly fruit & seed eaters! #Paleontology #fossils @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social @paleosoc.bsky.social @oupaleobiology.bsky.social 10.1016/j.palaeo.2026.113585

#FossilFriday HUGE news! We're thrilled to announce the JAPV! 📍 Tucumán, Argentina 🗓 May 2026 Mark your calendars for the premier meeting on fossil vertebrates! Researchers, students, enthusiasts—get ready! @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social @thepalass.bsky.social @therhinoscaros.bsky.social

Happy to be participating in the CAPA 2025, in #Paraná, Entre Ríos, Argentina. 🤩 Presenting our works on south american native ungulates. Always a pleasure to share science and connect with colleagues. Great week! #Paleontology #FossilFriday @thepalass.bsky.social

#FossilFriday is the perfect day to time-travel! Our Paleo-LILLO field trip through 14 ka-8 Ma formations was absolutely incredible! The thrill of uncovering ancient life, piece by piece, is a feeling like no other. Every fossil tells a story!

#FossilFriday 🇦🇷 Extinct mammals from the last 15 Ma! We revealed fascinating details about their locomotor habits and diet. From rhino-like forms and agile macraucheniids to rodents, we explored how ecological niches were shared in the Neogene. doi.org/10.1080/0891...
