  1. The new CollectA Age of Dinosaurs Popular Tylosaurus figure has an incredible amount of detail.

    Make it yours: everythingdinosaur.info/collec

    ✅ ram on the snout
    ✅ pterygoid teeth
    ✅ glottis and forked tongue
    ✅ hypocercal tail

    It is a highly accurate representation of Tylosaurus proriger. The model reflects links to the Squamata.

  6. A Sumatran Flying Dragon (Draco sumatranus) spotted at Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve on 9 Feb 2025. This one is a male as it has a yellow gular (throat) flap. Its ribs are also slightly extended, showing some of the patagium (membrane) used for gliding.

  11. A couple weeks ago I ran into this cute little brownsnake, _Storeria dekayi_, when out spidering!! Less than a foot long and quite slender (the first photo was taken with my lowest-magnification macro lens).

    They are not rare, but I virtually never come across snakes in my wanderings and I don't think I've ever seen one of these before. I only even knew they existed because of lurking on /r/whatsthissnake! These small harmless creatures mostly eat slugs and snails.

    What a special find. I treasure the encounter. (The snake, on the other hand, was mildly annoyed and moved away.)

  16. #Cretaceous-Period #Mosasaur Had Enormous, Wing-Shaped Flippers

    A new derived mosasaurine (#Squamata: Mosasaurinae) from south-western Japan reveals unexpected postcranial diversity among hydropedal mosasaurs tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10

    "Its extra-long rear flippers might have aided propulsion in concert with its long finned tail. And unlike other #mosasaurs, it had a dorsal fin like a #shark’s that would have helped it turn quickly and with precision in the water."

  17. Snakes Can Hear You Better Than You Think

    Researchers have dispelled the myth that snakes are deaf to airborne sound and can ‘hear’ only ground vibrations. Snakes were placed in a soundproofed room, and sounds with different frequencies were played on speakers. [...] The experiment suggests that snakes can indeed hear sounds in the frequency range and volume of a human voice.
