Wishing you a fin-tastic #FishyFriday! "Histoire Naturelle des Poissons" (1828-1849) by Cuvier & Valenciennes attempted to catalog all known #fish. The 22 volumes treated over 4,500 species. Explore the work in #BHLib thanks to @mayrlibrary ➡️ https://t.co/woPoIxmpWC 🐠🐡🐟
Malayan tapirs were first described to Western science by Anselme Gaëtan Desmarest in 1819 - seven years after Georges Cuvier discounted the likelihood of “discovering new species of the larger quadrupeds” - and Baird's tapirs weren't described until 1865.

More #paleoart for @cpdinosaurs. Here's the large Chalk pterosaur Cimoliopterus cuvieri, a species that inspired (at least in part) the larger CP pterosaur models. This image is an updated one from my 2013 book (actually drawn in 2011: it took time to get that book together).

#CzCon2018 ~> #CzCon2019 Year of the Tapir. In 1812, Baron George Cuvier made what the cryptozoologist Bernard Heuvelmans called his "Rash Dictum": he said that it was unlikely that any large animal remained undiscovered. In 1819, the Malayan Tapir was discovered. ~ @CryptoLoren
