Now that the Congress is over.
The organization committee would like to thank you all for participating, promoting and making this #5thPVC possible.
See you next time!!!
FYI for anyone still in doubt, Miragaia never went away because the last authors to allege it to be synonymous with D. armatus only discussed 10 out of the 27 differences found between M. longicollum MG 4863 and the holotype of D. armatus. Find out more in our @palaeovc.bsky.social video! #Miragaia
‼️We are already into second week of the @palaeovc.bsky.social ✨
You can find my presentation there about #devonian fish remains from J. Valiukevičiaus #collection stored at the Nature Research Centre in #vilnius #palaeontology #Science #research #museum #Lithuania #tuesdayvibes
For anyone that might have been confused for the past few months if Miragaia longicollum is a valid species or not, we have a video-talk right now in the Palaeontological Virtual Congress demonstrating how it differs from D. armatus - mostly reiterating what was already demonstrated in Costa & Mateus (2019), as the last authors that alleged that M. longicollum would be synonymous with D. armatus only discussed 10 out of the 27 characters found to differ M. longicollum MG 4863 from the holotype of D. armatus. This research differs the most from previous for being the first with first-hand comparisons of both NHMUK PV OR 46013 (the type specimen for Dacentrurinae) and MG 4863 (the most complete dacentrurine in the world), as well as with many other stegosaur type-specimens. In our presentation you can find many never-before-seen photos of both holotypes, MG 4863 and other specimens comparing these species. If you haven't registered yet, you still can for just 5€, and see ours and 350 other scientific presentations until March 25th!! https://www.palaeovc.org/ In our presentation you can find many never-before-seen photos of both holotypes, MG 4863 and other specimens comparing these species side.

Pattern of CO2 over the past 66 Million years. The curve begins around 720ppm, peaks at 1600ppm 51 Million years ago and then declines toward today when a marked increase in CO2 is observed that is caused by human CO2 emissions.
For the first time ever, recorded atmospheric CO₂ has exceeded 430ppm! The last time CO₂ consistently reached today’s human-driven levels was ∼14 Million years ago, with shorter periods of similar levels around 3-5 Million years ago.
