Illustration showing a pair of adult Sonselasuchus eating in a bipedal pose while the juvenile in the foreground is adopting a quadrupedal pose
Allow me to introduce you to Sonselasuchus cedrus, a new bipedal, beaked and herbivorous crocodile-relative that lived during the Late Triassic in North America

OMG what a tiny croc!

A map of major fish fossil deposits in northern italy

Utah has a really great Geologic Record. Cambrian sites like Spence, Wheeler, Weeks and Marjum are quickly becoming some of the most important globally, and in the Cenozoic you have amazing mammal assemblages, as well as Lake Uinta. Definitely one of the best places on the planet for fossils.
Utah deserves its own Dinosaur Documentary. No other place in the world has such a continuous record in one place intersperced with spectacular National Parks and Monuments. @scinews.bsky.social @netflix.com @altnps.bsky.social @whydinosaurs.bsky.social @agu.org @societyofvertpaleo.bsky.social

If you want to support a museum and get a pretty cool book, I recommend this book illustrated by @joschuaknuppe.bsky.social. Lots of really good info, I just hope that itโs easier for people to get their hands on relatively soon.
A book in german with several swimming Plesiosaurs, long necked marine reptiles.
I finally got my hands on "Die Welt der Plesiosaurier" from LWL. Huge congrats to @dinosven.bsky.social Achim Schwemann & @joschuaknuppe.bsky.social. I am excited to read through this! if you can get your hands on it I highly recommend getting it. its wonderful sofar!
Dark, shallow underwater scene showing three Astraspis, yellow, finless, jawless fish with armored head swimming to the right, surrounded by some algae and rocks. 3D artwork.
Murky underwater scene with two Eriptychius, dark brownish, finless, jawless fish facing each other, half buried in the soft sediment, with rocks in the background. 3D artwork.
Top view of a shallow marine environment with Eriptychius and Astraspis, two different species of jawless fishes, loitering around the soft sediment and rocks. 3D artwork.

yeah, its really frustrating when people are expecting individuals to face systemic issues that reach so much further beyond *just* paleontology. I've literally had to see folks far more academically well-off than I reconsidering investing their time into the field recently because of everything.
I wish I could express my dismayal at the current state of the field of Paleontology without people saying "be the change you want to see in the world" like that helps any. The field is harder and harder to be in, from all angles: Cost, Academia, and the power that so many awful people still hold.

A group of Dorygnathus use a Seirocrinus raft as a hunting ground for fish, when a big Eurhinosaurus suddenly breaches the surface.
This scene takes place in Germany during the Early Jurassic, around 180 million years ago.

If you want to support the Palestine Museum of Natural History (which is currently renovating) you can do that directly, by donating, or by producing artwork for them! I already donated some artwork to them

Here the result of the Ein Yabrud quarry #paleostream. An important locality from the Cretaceous of Palestine. While mostly famous for it's marine snakes and early mosasauroids, beautiful fish fossils and rich invertebrate fauna are completing this picture!

A landscape page with a pale green background and two illustrations of Ginkgo on it. On the left is an inaccurate one with leaves coming directly from a branch. On the right is an accurate one with clusters extending from short shoots.
I, too, would like to have a go at the new Spinosaurus soon, but in the meantime:
Here's a slide from my recent talk, which covers the DOs and DON'Ts of restoring ginkgoes within palaeoart!
Enjoy! #Ginkgo #FossilFriday #paleobotany #paleoart #SciComm
A photo of a plush extinct shark, Bavariacyllius, made of printed fabric with a mottled browns and stripes.
A few changes to be made but nothing major!!
The skeleton of a fossil fish from Palestine.
An illustration by Apokryltaros showing another prehistoric Palestinian fish.
a piece by JW (SeismicShrimp) showing a early mosasaur from the site.
in a couple days on Saturday 11pm CET, Paleostream will be illustrating the Ein Yabrud Lagerstรคtte of Palestine. Josch has confirmed there should be some charities available for folks to donate to, which i highly recommend folks should if you have the means. I hope to see you there. #FreePalestine
If the paleo community is going to be serious about Hornerโs connection to Epstein, we also have to be serious about Myhrvoldโs, because guess who contributed photos of animals mating to Epsteinโs birthday book and has been appearing in new paleo papers this year - including the new Spinosaurus.
The words "SciArt" on a deep blue gradient background, like the ocean. SCI is in bright orange, ART in Naples Yellow/cream. Similar colours to the puffer fish emoji, the community mascot.
