Quick Equus occidentalis (Western horse) study
based on La Brea specimens
The next two specimens are part of a potential new species of Triceratops. This specimen is not complete, but it is clearly an adult (fused skull), but it is quite diminutive!
Edna L. Beutenmüller created #SciArt for several books on insects, including over 700 for "Field Book of Insects" (1918), based largely on specimens from @AMNH where her husband was curator of entomology. Via @MBLWHOILibrary ➡️ https://t.co/Opmy4qSbNZ

Specimen for Estro (typeface by Aldo Novarese), Società Nebiolo, Italy, 1961. See more of this and other Nebiolo specimens in the Online Archive: https://t.co/TCqFc4cEvg
Have you seen our collection of whale skulls on @sketchfab? This #MammalMonday why not check them out? You can rotate them, zoom in and explore the models digitally in a way that would not be possible with the physical specimens. #MondayMotivation https://t.co/27QZ6YdFTm
Don’t forget the #RSPB #BigGardenBirdWatch this weekend! We’ve spotted some rather splendid specimens in an illustrated volume by the 18th century naturalist Pierre Joseph Buchoz.
I'm happy to see that the A. jimmadseni name has finally been formalised. A truly wonderful set of specimens, congrats to Chure & Loewen! On a nostalgic level, it's also nice to see that good ol' "Big Al" has at last been formally assigned to a species! https://t.co/ZUkNeIUnTH
In honor of looking at Trifolium pratense specimens today at the @CarnegieMNH 🤗 #SciArt
While at @ncsuinsects looking up #Cerambycidae specimens for someone, I saw this crazy thing: Tapeina transversifrons (from Panama). Look at that hammerhead! It's ♂️ & I think they're sexually dimorphic. I know of a few other beetles like this...they must butt heads?
When at @NHM_London I always go look at the #birds, the displays are great. Here's a seriema, the two dodo models (models, not taxiderm specimens) and a Cape/Pintado petrel. #museums #museumdisplay
A caricature from Hans Christian Andersen's Little Ida's Flowers by Arthur Rachham (1867-1939) depicting a professor in a top hat talking to two thistles w/ human features. 🌿👜 He holds an open book & carries a green vasculum over his shoulders to store his botanical specimens.
Happy #histsci birthday to legendary naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace. He co-discovered evolution through natural selection during an 8-year journey through Southeast Asia, a trek that spanned over 14,000 miles and resulted in the collection of over 125,000 specimens. #OnThisDay
For #FirstDayQuack, The Natural History of the British Surface-feeding Ducks by John G. Millais.
A hunter, naturalist, artist & writer, Millais travelled extensively collecting specimens and recording the birds he observed. #InternationalSolicitedDuckPicDay #FirstDayBack 🦆
@EstOdek I’m Ash, an #entomologist & #curator of #insects; a care-taker for a collection of over 2 million specimens. My speciality is #CarrionBeetles 💀 (the vital decomposers that eat dead bodies)
The Fossil Pokemon! They work a bit differently in this region; instead of being revived from a specimen encased in stone, the fossils in Norre are revived from specimens frozen in blocks of ice, making the part Ice type!

#BornOnThisDay 'quinologist' John Eliot Howard (1807-1883) - expert in botany and chemistry of #cinchona, #quinine, government advisor and collector of many of @KewScience specimens. https://t.co/YSdzg7LMfk
Type specimens of Australopithecus africanus/prometheus (yellow endocast) and Homo naledi (blue). Similar brain size/shape between very distinct species #FossilFriday
Our Documentation Assistants have been beavering away curating & adding specimens from @NatResWales' marine monitoring programme into the collections of @AmgueddfaCymru. They have already logged 3000 records, ensuring they are available for reference by future generations
