No vídeo de hoje, falo um pouco sobre uma nova descoberta: o Bakiribu, o primeiro pterossauro filtrador do país, cujos fósseis foram encontrados nos restos de uma refeição nada agradável de um dinossauro. 🦖🤢

Can I drag your attention to the artworks by contemporary Czech palaeoartist, Vladimir Rimbala. His works are a perfect mix of modern science and retro composition (🧵)

If you weren’t already aware, on the 6th and 7th of Dec in Strasbourg, France, Dinoël is returning. This amazing event is similar to DinoCon in its objectives and a wonderful opportunity to explore the creative side of palaeontology through palaeo-art and workshops.

Foggy morning in Late Pleistocene Patagonia.

#Art #SciArt #artbyjulio
A scene depicting the Patagonian scrubland in the early morning, dotted with araucarias and framed by foggy mountains in the background. A pair of Macrauchenia, four guanacos and a patagonian mara are seen among the grass. A Megatherium walks by further away and a crested caracara flies over the scene.

Now out in Tim Smithson's Festschrift: neurocranial anatomy (incl. endocast) of the Early Devonian Durialepis et al. OA for your porolepiform pondering pleasure. W/ @gilespalaeo.bsky.social @jorgemondejar.bsky.social @tom-challands.bsky.social & S. Henderson www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
Figure showing complete endocast of Durialepis in dorsal view. Upper panels show this with only partial sensory canal overlay; lower panel shows elaborately ramifying branches of main canals. CT renderings and interpretive drawings of the anterior half of the endocast of Durialepis. CT renderings and interpretive drawings of the posterior half of the endocast of Durialepis, showing the skeletal labyrinth. CT renderings and interpretive drawings of the anterior half of the endocast of the holoptychiid porolepiform Glyptolepis.

the african s. imperator is the larger and more famous of the two species, and was found in the elrhaz formation of niger, where it coexisted with the spinosaurid suchomimus and the hadrosauriform ouranosaurus, among others
(art by raphtor)
sarcosuchus lunges out of the water at a herd of ouranosaurus, a scene not dissimilar to nile crocodiles attacking wildebeest today

New set for James Conlon's EPOCH paleoart sketch series with ankylosaurian dinosaurs Minmi, Ankylosaurus, Jakapil, Borealopelta, and Stegouros.

Minmi's appearance is speculative and Jakapil's placement is unsure, but hopefully this isn't too far off the mark.

#Paleoart #Dinosaur #Ankylosauria
Some of these have speculative appearances, like Minmi, or an uncertain placement, like Jakapil. Minmi is mostly based on Kunbarrasaurus with more basal features mixed in and an orange and green coloration while laying down in a 'sploot' pose. Ankylosaurus is raising its club in a defensive display and has colors based on an eastern box turtle, Jakapil is in a sprinting pose with gray and orange colors, Borealopelta is reddish-brown with countershading and eating ferns, Stegouros is in a standing pose and is brown with orange accents.

In late August Renesto et al. published a paper where they described a specimen of Lariosaurus valceresii that preserves the skin, even outlining the body and limbs as well scales. I must say that I am happy that it is very very close to what I had hypothesized 😍

I haven't been posting much. But that doesn't mean I haven't been drawing any dinosaurs. 👀

I drawed a dinosaur.
#SciArt
An illustration of a large T. rex on a white background. The dinosaur has a mostly grey body with pale stripes and splotches, with earthy orange tones around its head and neck. “Tyrannosaurus was a bipedal carnivore with a massive skull balanced by a long, heavy tail. Relative to its large and powerful hind limbs, the forelimbs of Tyrannosaurus were short but unusually powerful for their size, and they had two clawed digits. The most complete specimen measures 12.3–12.4 m (40–41 ft) in length, but according to most modern estimates, Tyrannosaurus could have exceeded sizes of 13 m (43 ft) in length, 3.7–4 m (12–13 ft) in hip height, and 8.8 t (8.7 long tons; 9.7 short tons) in mass.” (Source: Wikipedia)

Nossas madeiras petrificadas têm uma beleza ímpar. Esta é de Duque Bacelar-MA, tem aprox. 280 milhões de anos e é de uma gimnosperma (parente das araucárias). O Brasil perdeu muitas pelo contrabando de fósseis, compradas por museus e colecionadores europeus. Mas não é o caso desta. #FossilFriday
A fotografia mostra uma fatia de um tronco petrificado sobre um pano preto. São visíveis anéis de crescimento de cor branca, âmbar, rosa e cinza escuro. Foto por Flávio Lopes/UFRGS.
