Rudist bivalves! These were apparently the tribbles of Cretaceous reefs. The vase-shaped mollusks with lids appear only in the late Jurassic, take over reef-building in the Cretaceous, and then utterly disappear when the asteroid hits. 🤯 Amazing!

We used to only know Promachoteuthis sulcus from a single specimen that looked like it had a creepy, tooth smile. (It's actually folded, circular lips) But recently we saw the first Promachoteuthis live in the wild, and its so pretty! I'm sorry we thought you were a creep!

Gotta clean your face before starting the day! Spiders don't have eyelids so sometimes they wipe their eyes with their pedipalps (short leg-like appendages in the front). It kind of reminds me of windshield wipers. #Spiders #SciComm #Inverts #Bugsky #Behavior #Cute

Happy #FossilFriday! Today we’ve got Edaphosaurus, an early synapsid and among the first terrestrial herbivores! Like its cousin Dimetrodon, it had a tall sail on its back, but unlike its cousin there were numerous crossbars on each neural spine that would have protruded the sides of the sail! 🧪⚒️🦊

“I go up," said the elevator, "or down." "Good," said Zaphod, "We're going up." "Or down," the elevator reminded him. "Yeah, OK, up please." There was a moment of silence. "Down's very nice," suggested the elevator hopefully. "Oh yeah?" "Super." "Good," said Zaphod, "Now will you take us up?” #H2G2
