Aprovecho para recordar que este libro está muy e tretenudo y lleno de datos e historias curiosas. Vamos, que mola para leerlo en verano (y en invierno y en primavera... y, por supuesto, en otoño).

Ayer, @biogeocarlos.bsky.social y @thuban.bsky.social me acompañaron en la presentación de mi libro Hongos.
La verdad es que echamos un ratito de gran categoría, con un público muy entregado.

I have a new paper about these cute little guys (and some girls)!

White-necked Jacobins are interesting because all males and some but not all (!) females are brightly colored. The scientific question is why some but not all females?

We’ve got a new paper out today about hummingbirds and game theory. One of my co-authors, @kevinzollman.com, has written a very nice explainer thread here. 🪶

Here's the final cover we're going with on #MesozoicArtII, featuring an image by Anthony Hutchings. The book is already available for preorder online. Out September 2025, and oh boy is it a thing of beauty. #palaeoart #paleoart #books #dinosaurs
Book cover, with title in gold and subtitle and editor names in white. Main image is colour depiction of a Cretaceous forest floor by Anthony Hutchings, showing a psittacosaur group. At right, two individuals are having a face to face altercation of some sort. The animals are warm brown, with yellowish and orange tones on their undersides, black spots on their arms and shoulders, and long quills on the tail.

It's the Parasol-rolophus!

Hadrosaurs with howdahs are my *check notes* _jam_.
Brown pencil drawing of a Parasaurolophus caparisoned and mounted with a howdah fitted with a parasol, reminiscent of how Asian elephants have been historically utilised in ceremonies, etc, and still continue to be. Parasaurolophus is a hadrosaur with a distinctive, long, tubular head crest. Perhaps the best known of all hadrosaurs.

Private company buys a public good. A few years go by and the company decides the public good is no longer worthwhile; the public suffers as a result.

This story arc is way too common in modern society.

Neanderthal was human as well

Humans may not have survived without Neanderthals

“In fact, Neanderthal genes may have been crucial to our success by protecting us from new diseases we hadn't previously encountered.”

Humans may not have survived without Neanderthals
A new DNA analysis has shown that the arrival of modern humans from Africa was far from smooth.
