Made a rough sketch reconstructing the updated skull of Muttaburrasaurus. Repositioned some of the bones that were out of place, like the quadrate, maxilla and jaw.

it still boggles my mind how someone credibly accused of sexual misconduct is still consistently publishing and hasn't lost his job... its disheartening

wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it

Here the result of the Escuminac Formation #paleostream! These deposits from the Devonian of Canada offer a glimpse into a coastal fish community with some absolute bangers and historical favorites. But it doesn't come without it challenges.

These are the paleobirds I did for Scientific American last year! #FossilFriday 🪶🧪🐡

Many extinct sirenians past the Eocene look pretty normal once their lose their hindlimbs, and then there is Anomotherium.

I just want to be able to share images in DMs 🤷 private accounts would be nice, too. I dunno why people are taking it to extremes like people want diamonds or ponies or something - be serious, y'all.

Still alive as work on Book 7 enters the last few days, though I am quite sleep-deprived. And which joker organised daylight savings so close to my deadline? Thanks, jerk. Here's some #paleoart of the Jurassic pterosaur Balaenognathus soaring over dinoflagellates, the source of their pink bodies.

Result from the Pleistocene Sicily #paleostream! This piece was a fascinating up and down to construct and to research. While certainly iconic our understanding of these faunas is not complete and misinformation and memes plaster ones way. Center of this piece...

Cambrian on my mind #sciart

As if cassowaries weren't cool enough already.... So, does UV #fluorescence & reflectance translate to biological casque function? Well, that is complex. This is the first step, but future light physics, molecular, & ecological studies will be able to test the question more fully.

UV casque biofluorescence occurs in living #birds and even 100-year-old #museum specimens (big thanks to @nhm.org & @amnh.org for samples). This may be useful for censusing wild individuals 🇵🇬 🇦🇺 (similar to whale fluke “fingerprinting”) and identifying incomplete #cassowary specimens in collections.

Result of the Wellington Formation #paleostream! People like to think of the Carboniferous as the time of the giant insects but they actually reached their peak in the early Permian. And here in Kansas we find the largest: Meganeuropsis, which in our case in going after a...

A few weeks ago CBC reporter Sheena Goodyear reached out to me for comment on the new Spinosaurus paper. I said I couldn’t, because of Epstein connection Nathan Myhrvold’s involvement with it. We got to talking about how paleontology - especially dinosaur research- remains hostile to women. 🧪

🚨 It's finally out! 🚨 A new bizarre harvestman from Eocene Baltic amber, named Balticolasma wunderlichi! This wonderful little guy was quite the challenge to work on as I don't do inverts that often...

Result from the Sulphur Mountain Formation #paleostream! This formation made it onto the wheel as it is the last refuge of the last eugeneodonts, the group that gave us Helicoprion. Most prominently we have here Fadenia, a late surviving durophagous member of this group...

From El Hossny et al., 2020: Spathiurus, a Cretaceous relative of bowfins. This specimen is at a museum tied to the Lebanese University. One of the university’s campuses has been bombed, and the director of the Faculty of Science has been killed You can support Lebanon here: gofund.me/40b24e072

Utah deserves its own Dinosaur Documentary. No other place in the world has such a continuous record in one place intersperced with spectacular National Parks and Monuments. @scinews.bsky.social @netflix.com @altnps.bsky.social @whydinosaurs.bsky.social @agu.org @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social

If you want to support a museum and get a pretty cool book, I recommend this book illustrated by @joschuaknuppe.bsky.social. Lots of really good info, I just hope that it’s easier for people to get their hands on relatively soon.

I finally got my hands on "Die Welt der Plesiosaurier" from LWL. Huge congrats to @dinosven.bsky.social Achim Schwemann & @joschuaknuppe.bsky.social. I am excited to read through this! if you can get your hands on it I highly recommend getting it. its wonderful sofar!

Look at my fesh #Art #SciArt

I wish I could express my dismayal at the current state of the field of Paleontology without people saying "be the change you want to see in the world" like that helps any. The field is harder and harder to be in, from all angles: Cost, Academia, and the power that so many awful people still hold.

A group of Dorygnathus use a Seirocrinus raft as a hunting ground for fish, when a big Eurhinosaurus suddenly breaches the surface. This scene takes place in Germany during the Early Jurassic, around 180 million years ago. Digital painting by Peter Nickolaus, 2025.

Here the result of the Ein Yabrud quarry #paleostream. An important locality from the Cretaceous of Palestine. While mostly famous for it's marine snakes and early mosasauroids, beautiful fish fossils and rich invertebrate fauna are completing this picture!

I, too, would like to have a go at the new Spinosaurus soon, but in the meantime: Here's a slide from my recent talk, which covers the DOs and DON'Ts of restoring ginkgoes within palaeoart! Enjoy! #Ginkgo #FossilFriday #paleobotany #paleoart #SciComm

A few changes to be made but nothing major!!

in a couple days on Saturday 11pm CET, Paleostream will be illustrating the Ein Yabrud Lagerstätte of Palestine. Josch has confirmed there should be some charities available for folks to donate to, which i highly recommend folks should if you have the means. I hope to see you there. #FreePalestine

If the paleo community is going to be serious about Horner’s connection to Epstein, we also have to be serious about Myhrvold’s, because guess who contributed photos of animals mating to Epstein’s birthday book and has been appearing in new paleo papers this year - including the new Spinosaurus.

hmmmm I wonder why Josch and us were so adamant about not doing Cabrières Biota as a formation piece tehehehe

It's been a while! But I’m back with some massive 🧪 news: 15 papers on the Cabrières Biota have been accepted in Lethaia. They show the incredible complexity of life 470 million years ago (e.g., sponges, algae, worms🪱, arthropods🦐) and will be rolling out soon! 🎨 by @joschuaknuppe.bsky.social

Wow! Or, I suppose, alternately: - hexanchiforms are not true sharks, or - rays are derived sharks.

And here there result of the Naracoorte #paleostream! This classic Australian megafauna assemblage is a well preserved treasure trove in South Australia that gives us a glimpse at a fauna just before the arrival of humans. Subsequently a large portion of the...
