The Steinheim skull has been a puzzle in Today, we know that genetic exchanges with Africa influenced early Neandertals, and fossils from Apidima, Greece close in age to Steinheim may reflect this mixing. Why not this one too?

The Guanshan Biota has a host of primitive arthropods including the scavenger Guangweicaris spinatus. The lack of hard parts means we mainly find them in konservat-lagerstätten.

Because this fish is rather obscure and there's only a handful fossils to look for reconstructing, I used its close relative the Strunius and Qingmenodus as reference and also use extant Hoplias sp. as other reference, that gave me 2 version of the Onychodus as illustrated below

Time to take part in fashionably late, of course!

Diplomystus dentatus, a predatory clupeomorph fish known from Eocene deposits. Fossils occasionally show this fish with large prey protruding from it's mouth, presumably choking to death and becoming fossilized.

Here are my Fossil for my fan region. My Fossils are based on the stories of Real Fossils being mistaken for Mythological creatures. Left is a Fairy/Ground Type inspired by Pixies and Elementals and Right is a Fairy/Fighting Type inspired by Cyclops.

The tall rami of the SK 23 mandible match the tall faces of other fossils attributed to its species, Paranthropus robustus. Isotopic evidence suggests it ate the same range of foods as the smaller-toothed members of our own genus, Homo.

The "robust" lineage shows some differences between earlier and later P. boisei fossils from the East African Rift Valley. Omo 57-41 at 2.36 million years old is near the critical transition time. Maybe it's P. aethiopicus, or maybe not?

The fossil hominins from Zhoukoudian, China, are among the best known Homo erectus samples. Approximately the same age as fossils from Spain attributed to H. antecessor, the connection between these populations is currently unknown.
