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
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
For #FossilFriday congratulation to our Master student @BoulinJordan who finished today (co-supervised with @LauraDziomber). A very nice work on the #3D morphology of the #ruminants and what we can say about it (phylogeny, ontogeny, allometry).

The largest ever #phylogeny, using both morphological and molecular markers, of Auchenipteridae, the driftwood catfishes, is out now in our November issue! https://t.co/ZezaxtKbAE

Divine stasis - to exist outside of the restrictions of bodily phylogeny, culture, gender, and time. This is the desire of all those who have been made subject to words manifest.
These images are an empyrean introspection. Who are you? What are you?
With all this new discussion about dinosaur phylogeny, it's important to remember that at least #dinosaurs are still a monophyletic group.
