RIP Dr Jane Goodall 🐒

Glad I had the chance to see her delivering a message of hope in person a couple years ago back

#FossilFriday - Mariliasuchus amarali Carvalho & Bertini 1999, a small sphagesaurian (sensu Ruiz et al., 2021) that helped start the current boom in notosuchian research back in the late 90s 🐊

Something ...small...is coming 🐊

Croc lovers rejoice! for a brand new fossil species is about to emerge from Brazil, and its not what you think...

I met the largest of the New World Monkeys 🐒 today:

The thoughtful Muriqui-do-sul!

And that’s it! The first Paleontology of non-avian Reptiles course at the University of São Paulo 📚 has come to an end with an amazing seminar session!

Couldn’t ask for a better class. Thanks to all the students for trusting this humble postdoc!

Having my first teaching experience as a postdoc here at the University of São Paulo 📚

I’m learning a lot from students and their feedback will help me grow professionally.

Teaching vertebrate paleontology is a dream come true! #academiclife #paleontology

These were recently discovered by William Nava at Adamantina Formation (Late Cretaceous) outcrops #paleontology #notosuchia

Introducing myself here on Bluesky🦋again:

Hello! I’m Daniel Martins, a Brazilian vertebrate paleontologist ⚒️and currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Pedro Godoy’s MacroPaleo Lab www.macropaleolab.com

I mainly focus on the anatomy, paleoecology, and systematics of fossil crocodyliforms 🐊

Hi everyone ! I'm Daniel Martins, a vertebrate paleontology PhD student at the University of Brasília, Brazil.

I'm in love with fossil archosaurs in general, but pseudosuchians hold a special place in my heart !
