Here’s a mermaid whose tail is based on the northern pike, one of the coolest freshwater fish! 😊🐟
SAGITTARIUS: they travel all over the world, from freshwater to the deepest depths of the ocean. their scales are scattered across their body, the color of the sunrise, & their fins are a brilliant fan, ombre & almost ruffled as it creeps up their tail in layers.

The freshwater Alligator Mermaid is an effective and GARgantuan ambushed predator, lurking in warm shallow water. This #mermay themed #SundayFishSketch was fun, can't wait to look at your creations!
@TaraLynC @SolomonRDavid I'm Olivier, ecologist studying fish ecology, otolith chemistry and aquatic invasive species. I draw freshwater fish in hope to raise awareness. #SundayFishSketch #scicomm
I'm in whale mode right now for research, so gonna share one of my favorites for #FossilFriday-- Remingtonocetus. Sounds very proper, I would absolutely have tea with Remingtonocetus (named for Remington Kellogg). It's a freshwater or coastal, early whale from the Middle Eocene.

1/2 Here's my input for day 5 of @EmptyBrooke s #mermay2020 prompts. Now I'm a white Australian and bacteria has more culture than us so I thought making a yawkyawk (indigenous mermaid) would be a fitting alternative. Unlike most cultures, yawkyawk are only found in freshwater
Deleted before, had to fix some things
Fermintide that freshwater mermaid!
Learned today that, in addition to every other freshwater invert on Earth, I am also apparently caring for two 3cm leeches. Unintentionally kidnapped from FL in December. Sorry ladies
6/Alligators live in freshwater (slow rivers, swamps, marshes, lakes).
Current habitat isn't anywhere near the west coast, but maybe the death of humanity + climate change allowed them to broaden their horizons in the stone world. They also got bigger? (current record is 19.2 ft)
“Gardenhead and Jointed Neck”.
Heterosteus asmussi, a 6 meter long freshwater placoderm fish from the Devonian. It may have been an ambush predator, spending most of its time close to the sediment.
I really liked painting this one.
