New to the internet for from 2019: the tanystropheid Dinocephalosaurus hunts for small fish by uprooting algae. There are things I'd change about this now but this is a "lost" painting - the original Photoshop file is missing. It is what it is.

2 meters long. That may not seem insane compared to T.rex or a Columbian mammoth. But for 480 million years ago, Aegirocassis was downright enormous!

Who needs one Ichthyornis for when you can have 40?! Self-congratulatory salute to et al for a fantastic in-depth look into an awesome near-neornithine bird (even if it can fly).

So for about fossil symbols for , My favorite sawskate (sawfish are convergent on this extinct Cret family), Texatrygon brycensis. These teeth found in Mid Campanian Wahweap Fm. at Bryce, were from a close relative of Lebanopristis and Micropristis.

Today's is about dino combat. et al published a paper this week suggesting ankylosaur club-tails were used in intraspecies fights. Damaged armour on (red below) has been proposed as injuries from the club of another Zuul based on placement!
