Lepidodendron: or 'the scale tree" was a genus of primitive, vascular, tree-like plant related to the club mosses. They reached heights of over 30m (100 ft), with trunks over 1m (3.3 ft) in diameter. They thrived between 359-299 MYA. #FossilFriday #ArborDay

Lepido was designed and created by @pamhamz ! I included the original character sheet she drew for him!

simplified Lepidolite's look a bit after all these years~ #gemsona
Budgett's frog, or Lepidobatrachus laevis, or... ЗЛАЯ ЩИТОСПИНКА.
That name is even better than the frog itself 😂
I rewatched #StevenUniverse for the 4th time, and I still am in love with the #gemsona I made and i HAD to draw her again. Meet Lepidolite! Since they can pick a form themselves, I wonder if animals would be canon...
Felis Lepidoptera - Pellucid Hawk Moth kitten! Doodle for myself between commissions, will probably make more because moths are great and so are cats.

Pterosaur mothers carried their eggs inside their bodies until just before hatching. That gives their babies warmth & protection until they are ready to hatch. They could do this because they are lepidosaurs, as phylogenetic analysis & egg shell thickness and pliability tells us.
