For some from 2016: the azhdarchid that would eventually become Cryodrakon is scavenged by a variety of dinosaurs and pterosaurs. I should do top-down views more often, they're fun to execute and interesting to look at.

The recently described alcoberi is on the lineage leading to both rhynchocephalians and lizards/snakes. This beautifully preserved skull analyzed by CT helps show when traits unique to each evolved. https://t.co/NJNTpI5nH9

Yes I'm still tooting my own horn for naming a new species - who wouldn't?!
Sharing my favorite element for from the Parocnus dominicanus holotype (MHD 237), this nearly complete pelvis. Sloth pelvii are extremely hard to find whole, so this specimen is special!

The fossilized remains of Xiphactinus, an extinct genus of large (up to 5.1 metre) predatory marine bony fish that lived during the Late Cretaceous. When alive, the fish would have resembled a gargantuan, fanged tarpon (to which it was, however, not related).

The amazingly unique and weird skull of Rusingoryx!

The nasal passage and the sinuses (coloured) are completely empty and full of air. This antelope would have made trumpeting sounds like some dinosaurs!!!
