#LagerstatteoftheWeek The sea spider, Palaeoisopus, found in the Devonian Hunsrück Slate
#Fossils
#OnThisDay in 1973 the first Australopithecus afarensis fossils (AL 128 & AL 129; age 3.3 million-year-old) were found by Donald Johanson and his team in Hadar, Ethiopia. Its functional morphology was interpreted as evidence of adaptations to bipedalism.
@KatalystArts Hi there! I'm FossilizedShark and I like drawing and pairing a wide variety of things. Mostly fanart!
Happy #FossilFriday ! Check out these super cool 3D images by @VictoriaArbour of bones from Ferrisaurus sustutensis BC’s Mountain Dinosaur https://t.co/om5vbm8zPr

Governments can't subsidize the fossil fuel industry, set far away targets and also expect to be taken seriously.

For the final #FossilFriday of #Arachtober - and given it's nearly halloween - let's meet a fossil parasite! This beautiful tick was preserved in Eocene (~44–49 million year old) amber, and was reconstructed in 3D by using high resolution CT. Fossil left, digital render right.
Sharing some of my pterosaur-themed pieces for #PrehistoricFlyersWeek and #FossilFriday
As for #dinosaur mating trace fossils, for 'Dinosaurs Without Bones' I illustrated possible (speculative) diagrams of track patterns representing such behaviors in theropods (L) & sauropods (R), in which the beasts with 2 backs would result in 4 & 6 tracks. #ichnology 2/2
Our new paper on tooth modeling (and model simplification) of extant and extinct reptiles is out. https://t.co/ANqWr4LAAX

Pastel Paleotober Day 27: Citipati 💙
Citipati lived in the late Cretaceous desert of Mongolia. One Citipati was fossilized with its arms spread over its nest, trying to protect its eggs from a collapsing sand dune and providing evidence of parenting behavior in non-avian dinos
Yours truly has tried his hand at texturing this Ophiacodon model! No doubt some improvements will come before this gets into the mod.

I feel proud of have finished these big bugs, the largest insects known in fossil record Meganeura and Meganeuropsis, species part of the group of the Meganisopterans, the group of prominent large fliers of the late paleozoic.
Mah favourite fossil pokemon...again. But I can't help keep drawing those, just...look at it.^^
Gotta say tho, I struggled more on this than I'd like to admit.
here it is! my first attempt at a seamless repeating pattern. feel free to use this however you please, alter it, set it as your wallpaper, but please dont sell it or claim it as your own. transparent links below. #fossilfighters
C'est révolutionnaire pour l'époque! Ce petit marsupial restera dans l'Histoire comme la Sarigue (Opossum) de Cuvier (on sait aujourd'hui que ca n'est pas vraiment une sarigue, mais un marsupial disparu très proche). Le fossile est visible @Le_Museum .
