New paper by Tosetto et al.: new cranial material of longirostrine 'swordfish' dolphins from Italy - Ziphiodelphis and Dalpiazella- morphology, paleoneurology, phylogeny, and biogeography: https://t.co/UT1xUyYwBp
How does the BL change through time? Is the evolution polarity the same in different families? We used #geometricmorphometrics to explore shape variation of the inner ear, and test evolutionary rates within phylogeny for significant shifts cute illustration @CirsiumFerox 🙂

This study aims to address the morphological challenges of the bombardier #beetle subgenus Neobrachinus by using molecular sequence data to infer the phylogeny of the species and to test proposed species groups.

And a big thank you to @albertonykus for letting me use his amazing illustrations for the phylogeny figure!
Our new paper in @JVP_vertpaleo descrive a huge (5.18m marlin!) vertebrae. We start to understand why some marlins grow so big and others are smaller and this information reinforce our recently published phylogeny in @JournalSystPal. https://t.co/6RmQFpriXl
ive been drawing some regular ass animals for the #paleostream atlantis contest which is why i havent posted much on my pokemon phylogeny (which i know everyone is super excited about based on the engagement the other posts garnered) so heres some of those
Avian phylogeny and hybridization. Only 6 viable hybrids can be made between the 5 species, do to gametic and genome size differences. Sirawit is an infertile skimmer/flightless hybrid.
@Jose13NEO @199NickYT @Touyarokii Remember, in the Pokemon world, a fucking fish evolves into a goddamn Octopus. I think we can toss Phylogeny out the window

Results show that tapirs vary in bite force and sagittal crest height across their #phylogeny and different biogeographical realms, with #biteforce peaking in the #Pleistocene and genuinely high-crested morphologies restricted to the #Neotropics
Ovariectomized rat model and shape variation in the bony labyrinth by @devinleaward et al. Labyrinthine shape is a tool for assessing phylogeny & function in the fossil record, but osteoporosis may contribute to intraspecific shape variation:

Today we had a very special #paleostream! We looked into the anatomy, ecology and phylogeny of #Numidotherium, one of the earliest and WEIRDEST proboscideans ever! It's a roughly tapir sized animal from the Eocene of Algeria, from the El Kohol formation. (1/many)
Who is this festive-looking beast? 🎄
It is the first instar of Gyrostigma rhinocerontis #botfly larva! 🦏🪰😮

Tomorrow is October 5th, which means that my new @PrincetonUPress book #Dinopedia is out in the UK. A dinosaur book written for adults, and with an unashamed quantity of text on phylogeny, dinosaur diversity and evolutionary history. #dinosaurs #books

Today's blogpost I just had a quick word vomit about how how phylogeny and cladistics can potentially lead to some ridiculous groupings of living things.

We comment on cranial scute homology of stem turtles. Whereas shell scutes are relatively well understood & intensely used for phylogeny, cranial scutes are more problematic. This work expands pioneering work of others, particularly Juliana Sterli (@yatachelys) 2/3
