Two new species of crocodile discovered! Endemic to two different islands off the coast of Mexico, their habitats are already affected by human activity and increased conservation efforts are needed to protect these beautiful creatures 🐊

Taxonomic revision of the family Squalodontidae (Cetacea, Odontoceti): emptying the wastebasket of fragmentary holotypes onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... #FossilFriday @paleodb.bsky.social

Happy international women in science day!

I say happy, but I hope we all realize we will have to fight a lot harder sgain to earn our place in science. The rise of fascism is leading to dramatic cuts in science, and specifically wants us to serve as housewives again.

🐴🌿 Eurohippus messelensis was a perissodactyl that lived in western Europe 47-38 MYA. These tiny horse-like creatures had four toes and spent their days munching on leaves from the tropical rainforests that covered the area. The specimen originates from the Messel pit, Germany 🇩🇪

For my first #FossilFriday post:
Bernissartia fagesii, my beloved 💜
This basal eusuchian used to crawl around in between the Iguanodons ~130 MYA in what is now Bernissart, Belgium. It measured only 60 cm at maturity and is therefore one of the smallest - and cutest - crocodyliforms known to science

🚨 The Anatomical Record released a special issue focused entirely on Pseudosuchia 🐊 featuring our paper on Eosuchus lerichei! By analyzing its inner skull cavities, we found evidence that this Paleocene croc was capable of transoceanic dispersal 🌊 dx.doi.org/10.1002/ar.2...
