Food for thought #Samples from higher #paleolatitudes were on average smaller, but contained #outliers with the largest #sizes, highlighting the need to analyze entire #distributions. #Lithology and #collection differences need to be accounted for when evaluating #size differences across #space (#polar #gigantism) and #time (#Lilliput #effect). Similarly, differences in #facies may affect #species #determination

A gigantic bizarre marine #turtle (#Testudines: #Chelonioidea) from the Middle #Campanian (Late #Cretaceous) of South-western Europe https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-022-22619-w
#Leviathanochelys is the largest #MarineTurtle ever discovered in Europe, and one of the largest found worldwide. These findings indicate that #gigantism in marine turtles developed independently in different lineages in both North America and Europe.
