Tamisiocaris and Phragmochaeta in their natural habitat, about 900-1000 meters below the ocean surface. The only thing we know about Tamisiocaris is what their antennae looked like. All else is up to interpretation.

One of the Bodleian's #PolonskyGerman manuscripts, MS. Laud Misc. 96, contains half a dozen different bastarda hands. These images show the range of forms this script can take--and the challenge for palaeographers. https://t.co/UDZieNn0Rk #PolonskyGerman
This rainbow of flints have all been found in Essex and recorded on the @findsorguk database: https://t.co/v0VY7ODFZc They span the palaeolithic, mesolithic and neolithic periods #FestivalOfArchaeology #FindsFriday
Take a look at this incredible & strange duck-billed #dinosaur: Aquilarhinus palimentus, or ‘shovel-chinned eagle nose’, a new species of primitive hadrosaurid that lived 80 million years ago in #Texas. Read here: https://t.co/eZDJ5JIHz9 #Palaeontology @JournalSystPal

Hope I’m not too late for #PortfolioDay. I’m Owen, I’m a palaeontology student and I really enjoy making concepts and concept art. @PlayWarframe is my current fascination. Currently working on developing my digital art skills and learning 3D modelling!
I had forgotten this existed; it was amazing to work with @NHMdinolab at the @NHM_London: https://t.co/6LMy4Y1dcp. However, I really do have a punchable face ☹️. #PaleoArt #PalaeoArt #SciArt #SciComm #Dinosaur #Dinosaurs #Stegosaurus
Oh no, it’s the Echinoderm takeover! Run, Schinderhannes!

Okay. You asked, I did it, even though it was hell to draw.
Acinocrinus stichus, “row of thorny rings”. This was a giant “Collins Monster” type Lobopodian, extremely tank animals. Acinocrinus took this to a new level.

Annie & Louise apparently would sing a song called "I'll away to the Fossil Land." #PalaeoPoems has been looking for this song since the project first started, so if anyone has any information on where it may be written please contact us! (Art by @commababy)

We've decided to make a #pride post this month to celebrate a palaeontologist who lived and did field work with female partner in the early 20th century. The poem is a little different- there's no natural history in it! Here's a sneak peek of the art by @commababy.
