We set this piece between the open woodland and the bushlands of Lemuria. This piece exists as part of the usual roster of our spec evo projects for a while to show of the many burrowing animals that otherwise are hard to show, especially the ones that live near exclusively...

Some work out recently made, cetotherium riabinini is a small baleen whale from the Late Miocene of the Eastern Paratethys sea (Ukraine), a almost complete individual show it had remarkable body proportions unlike modern elongated species in a minuscule size.

As we leave the forests behind the landscapes becomes increasingly open and dry. The bushlands of Lemuria are therefore under threat of wildfires during the dry season of the year. This threat is more feared than any predator. Those who can't run or fly away will try to take...

Brachiosaurus/Giraffatitan: An Artistic History in Four Parts

(Art by Zdenek Burian, Roger Payne, Steve Kirk, and Mark Witton)
A trio of heavyset brachiosaurs, long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs, stand almost fully submerged in a calm river. Their movement kicks up sediment on the riverbed, adding to the murkiness beneath the surface. A tail-dragging brachiosaur with a muscular build ambles across a muddy shoreline, backed by a lush landscape with distant rolling hills. A pair of long-tailed pterosaurs soar overhead. A slender, towering brachiosaur feeds from from a conifer, dwarfed by the colossal trunks of the surrounding trees. The forest floor is blanketed by ferns and saplings, all bathed in dappled sunlight. Four towering brachiosaurs with svelte, graceful frames dance through the shallow surf, chasing each other playfully before a cloudy sky. Various pterosaurs flit about the giant dinosaurs, emphasizing their immense scale.

Papiliomaris kluessendorfae, first reported in 1985 as the Waukesha "Butterfly Animal", was recently described as a strange bivalved arthropod with three pairs of large, feathery appendages. Some reports indicate it could reach up to 20cm wide.

Modern euphractine armadillos sometimes hunt vertebrates as big or even bigger than them, this is taken to an extreme in Macroeuphractus

A happy day 2 of #Croctober (lets see how long I can keep this going)
Crocs are well known for their parenting, but did you know that we even have fossils of them on their nest?
This specimen comes from Germany and clearly shows a Diplocynodon mother that died on her nest
A photograph and a line drawing of a fossil crocodilian (Diplocynodon) curled up above its nest. The head is moderately long and somewhat blunt and the body curles around the animal so that the tail curves around the skull. The illustration highlights the presence of several eggs surrounding the fossil.

Better late than never! The tropical rainforest is our most diverse as well as one of the most challenging environments of Lemuria. A complex tangle of flora and fauna that got more than 500 submissions! i am still not 100% happy with this but at some point you have to let go...

The Triassic was a time of weird reptiles of every description.

This is one of the more recent finds: Mirasaura from France. It's one of the drepanosaurs, an odd group of arboreal reptiles with superficially bird-like heads and, in some cases, equally superficially feather-like appendages.
A slightly cartoony illustration of a Mirasaura sitting on a mossy tree branch. The lizard-like animal has a long snout resembling a bird's beak, large eyes and a massive crest on its' back somewhat resembling a birds' wing feathers, as if someone stuck an entire wader's wing into his back. The animal has large eyes and it looking behnd him at a passing dragonfly.

Where the rivers meander into huge wetlands and lakes in the lowlands the light is often blocked out by enormous floating mats of grass. These grass rafts are a huge, diverse habitat even with it's own endemic species of whale.

46 species made it into this one, with a lot more I would have liked to add but at some point one must move on and the image is already quite full.

LESS than 2 days left to back my art book Carbon Based! www.kickstarter.com/projects/oni... Finishing a T.rex vs Triceratops piece for the book & for the tier 4 print set. The rex is heavily based on AMNH 5027, it might have the coolest orbital horns.
