Here is another cool recent paper on #coleoid #cephalopod #phylogentics! https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-026-03009-1

Awesome new paper by Thomas Clements and co-authors! https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2025.2369 Fun fact: despite the name similarity, I have nothing to do with Pohlsepia or Palaeocadmus pohli 😉 #cephalopods #coleoids #coleoid #octopus #taphonomy #Carboniferous

New paper out on the formation mechanism of cameral deposits in orthoceratoid cephalopds! This topic has been debated for more than 150 years and we now finally have a satisfying solution 🥳 https://doi.org/10.1111/pala.70032 #palaeontology #cephalopods […] [Original post on ecoevo.social]

Nice view of @ruhr-uni-bochum.de campus this evening, though the picture looks a lot more dramatic than it was in reality. #Photomonday #sky #clouds #evening #bochum #rub #University #campus
