WIP. An illustration I started long ago but have not had time to finish. Cuspicephalus, a Late Jurassic pterosaur from England. Here hunting a squamate amidst large quillworts. Inspired by a reconstruction of the same taxon by @MarkWitton #paleoart #sciart #pterosaurs
@calacademy @inaturalist @WildlifeAcoust @___BRC___ And... wait... what? ... These biodiversity data search results are GARBAGE!
The database does okay on whales.
Except the species name appears to have got truncated for Physeter macrocephalus, suggesting poor data structure design or historic data migration issues.
A very personal portrait of my Grandson Killi and myself. He was born 3 months premature, had a bleed on the brain and caught meningitis. This has left him with lots of challenges, but we love him very much. #SteveElliottArt #procreate #killianphoenix #hydrocephaluswarrior
Chinese species in the genus <Deltocephalus> revealed a “#DNAbarcoding gap” when it comes to the identification of these #leafhoppers.

I've had a marine-filled couple of days (so many whales and sea birds!), so here's Jurassic #paleoart equivalent for #fossilfriday: Rhomaleosaurus, juvenile Stenopterygius, Parapsicephalus and many inverts. Composition is exactly how you see large marine vertebrates in real life.
"Helen and Bucephalus in the Garden"
Helen is an OC of mine. Making this was good practice for drawing/painting backgrounds. I'm proud of how it came out.
