#BSDBGenSoc2021 @VS_Marine asks how did paired fins emerge over evolution? Fate mapping in the skate embryo indicates an ancestral mesodermal contribution to the jawed vertebrate gill arch skeleton. See recent @eLife paper with @GillisLab:

My brain is away with early Jurassic marine reptiles this #FossilFriday, so here's the #paleoart mural I did of Rhomaleosaurus and friends for @SMTrust in 2018. We put this together pretty quickly - I wanted more fish and invertebrates but time wasn't on our side.
Gonna call this done. @/skumhuu 's Leviathantale featuring Oops God Of Reality: Legacy. He's a pikaia, once thought to be the evolutionary source of all vertebrates. (Zom is there too, for size. He's a Stygiomedusa Gigantea)
Original art in the bottom left is Sku's!! For size!!!
Furcacauda
A jawless deep water fish with a half moon shaped tail, it supports the theory that a stomach was developed before jaws in vertebrates
ALT: their gills where placed behind their large eyes, they are closely related to other ostracoderm families like heterostraci
What a great end to the week! My student @M_J_Mitchell_'s new paper is out now in @BiolJLinnSoc! We've been working for years on understanding modularity patterns in the vertebrate skull, but how do these patterns stack up within a species? Find out now! https://t.co/eR8vfVVFFM
Phylogeny is one of my favorite subjects. Well of course, I study it. But it also connects you to every species that has ever lived on Earth! I drew this vertebrate phylogeny in 2015 as an undergrad. It needs many updates... https://t.co/JW7e8Z1RRb #SciArtTweetStorm #SciArt
@ChloeCarterArts Thank you so much for this artshare!
Since fishes are the most diverse group of vertebrates, I figured they could use some representation here! I also draw dragons and other scaly things.

Pretty exciting to see the new #abelisaurid #Llukalkan aliocranianus from the Santonian of Neuquén, #Argentina, just published in Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology by Federico Gianechini et al. Known from great remains! Cont... #dinosaurs
The only respectable vertebrates are fishes. Please join me and the rest of #TeamFish on the hill we shall die on.
So @habaneroach brought up the concept of invertebrate Sonic characters, with a Big-inspired Tardigrade being one idea, and I wanted to try making one.
Getting it to at least look like the species while keeping a Sonic feel was a fun challenge, and I'm happy with the results!
Morturneria, an antarctic Aristonectine, sucks up krill resting on the bottom of some sea ice. Morturneria was a supremely weird filter feeder, sifting through sediment to feast on small invertebrates
The weekend is almost here. Hang in there. #insect #insects #flies #Drosophila #TeamInvert #invertebrate #invrtebrates #entomology
Hi #AnimalArtistsSEA. Im Sudhi, I love to draw any animal species in toon format, mostly invertebrate from obscure to famous one !!
I love anime too, as a trivia about me😂
(because if you see my twitter rn, i'm drawing anime arts recently)
Get set for spring with a copy of "Arthropedia: An Illustrated Alphabet of Invertebrates" (published in Norfolk by
@MascotMediaLtd).

#Arthropedia (and just a day late for #WorldBookDay).
"Some of the invertebrate life supported by seagrass meadows: (1) anemone anchored to the seagrass to feed; (2) isopod (small crustacean); (3) gastropod (sea snail) grazing along the seagrass leaves; (4) starfish sheltering between the leaves..."
