A partial recon of the new North American Pleistocene bovid Speleotherium logani. This guy is one of the few NA megafauna from this time described in the last century. Also showing that we still don't have a complete knowledge of the megafauna of Pleistocene NA #paleoart #sciart

Just barely making it for September’s #NearbyNature2025, here’s the Mexican Long-nosed Armadillo. Formerly known as a northern subspecies of the recently-split Nine-banded Armadillo, this is the only Xenarthran native to Alabama today. They are mostly nocturnal insectivores. #wildlife #alabama

With a new description of a certain holocephalian, I decided to go on a deep dive to illustrate some of weirdos from the jurassic being: Acanthorhina, Chimaeropsis, Metopacanthus, and Squaloraja. I also recommend listening to the recent episode by @commondescentpod.bsky.social about chimaeras!

This one was really fun to put together since a bunch of the resources were made with a bunch of people from the area, huge shout out to the UGA Stratigraphy Lab. Would have been so much harder without it.
Here the result of the last formation stream of 2024.
Over the course of 6 hours we explored the many organisms that inhabited the reefs of the Whitewater formation.
