In time for #FossilFriday, a new paper by Jansen Smith and many paleontologists (including me) on what questions the field may focus on in the coming decade

📢🦋 Our paper ‘Global selection on insect antipredator coloration’ is out and featured on the cover of @science.org

We ran a huge experiment to find out how ecological context favours camouflage and warning colouration as antipredator strategies. 1/6

*2025!

No, it is not a dream. This actually happened!!! We had a *fantastic* #CPEGCPB26 meeting and I cannot articulate any other adjective to describe it until I recover from it. Thanks to everyone who attended and everyone who helped making this happen. @kristinakocakova.bsky.social

WE GOT THIS!

Starts NOW - through the 14th. Don’t touch Amazon or anything Jeff Bezos owns.

Enjoy this classic, broken megalodon tooth from Scheuchzer's collection for this #FossilFriday - & prints of it from his books Piscium queruleae (1708; centre) & Physica sacra (1731; right). Both prints include a line to show/reconstruct the shape the whole tooth would have had. #SciArt #EarlyModern

Come join us in Swansea! We have a brand new masters program 🌊
