BMC Zoology
A study in BMC Zoology describes the hindlimb anatomy of Promegantereon ogygia, one of the oldest known sabre‑toothed cats, and compares it with modern felines and pantherines to understand how it moved and lived.

Megalodon piece made as a birthday gift for my good friend @theblueleviathan.bsky.social! Having a mock-up of the scene built out in Blender was great for figuring out a composition, I’ll include a video of the scene in the next part of this thread! #paleosky #megalodon

The digging season is fast approaching for many archaeologists and geologists. These new earrings offer just the right touch of colour to excavating some fresh stratigraphy!

This is figure 3, which shows histological thin sections through the mummified articulated Captorhinus specimen (ROMVP 88565, TS01782 and TS01993).
Mummified fossil reptile remails, dated to approximately 289–286 million years ago, show that early amniotes (a group that includes reptiles, birds, and mammals) breathed by moving their ribcages, according to a paper in Nature. go.nature.com/4ctrOIx #Paleosky 🧪

This is figure 1, which shows M. cousteaui gen. et sp. nov. from the Cambrian (Drumian) Wheeler Formation of Utah.
A 500-million-year-old fossil of a very early relative of spiders, scorpions, and mites offers insights into how this group of arthropods, called chelicerates, evolved. The fossil, found in Utah in the US, has clear claws, according to a paper in Nature. go.nature.com/3NB3Npy #Paleosky 🧪
