Photograph of a fossil fish skull in right lateral view. The bone is dark brown/black against a gray matrix.

Out now in Contributions from me and @gilespalaeo.bsky.social, a deep dive into an early member of the sturgeon and paddlefish lineage. Bear with me, but there’s a long backstory highlighting uncertainty about the anatomy of living species and how well-studied fossils can still yield new insights.

It’s a real journey, but I enjoy it too!

Nice stuff @jdpardo.bsky.social 👏🏼

Largest Silurian fish illuminates the origin of osteichthyan characters - Nature New findings from articulated head and trunk material of Megamastax amblyodus yield previously unseen morphological details of a Silurian stem osteichthyan.

Big fish news coming out in @nature.com today from the IVPP crew… first, more of the late Silurian osteichthyan #Megamastax from Yunnan, AND #Eosteus from the early Silurian of Chongqing, the world's earliest osteichthyan!
