El Sclerocormus parviceps fue un ictiosauriforme del Triásico temprano (248 MdA) de 1,5 m de longitud y más de 15 kg de peso, donde 92 cm pertenecen a la cola. No habría nadado muy rápido ni en aguas muy profundas, alimentándose probablemente por succión, alimentándose de presas pequeñas debido a sus diminutas mandíbulas.📷Nobu Tamura #triasico #triassic

🌍 Geographic & evolutionary significance: Geometric #morphometric analysis places 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘮𝘶𝘭𝘶𝘴 among the most morphologically extreme austrolimulids, most similar to forms from #australia. This extends their range to Central Europe and reveals Triassic xiphosurids were already widespread by the Early #Triassic, suggesting rapid post-Permian #diversification or earlier dispersal.

El parque nacional del Bosque Petrificado en Arizona, Estados Unidos, conserva árboles caídos fosilizados del Triásico tardío (225 MdA). En su día, cayeron en los ríos y quedaron enterrados en ceniza volcánica. El agua subterránea eliminó el sílice y dejó los cristales de cuarzo con trazas de óxido de hierro, que le dan su color. Se han identificado 200 plantas, 9 de ellas árboles, donde predomina la conífera Araucarioxylon arizonicum.📷Jerome Gorin #triasico #triassic

Por su cuello excepcionalmente largo, el Lijiangosaurus yongshengensis parece un plesiosaurio, pero es un notosaurio, que tenía patas palmeadas. Vivió en el Triásico medio (246-241 MdA) de más de 2,5 m, donde 18,2 cm corresponden a la cabeza y 115 cm al cuello, con 42 vértebras. La articulaciones entre las apófisis superiores e inferiores de las vértebras habrían limitado el movimiento lateral del cuello.📷Kelai Li #triasico #triassic

El Guizhouichthyosaurus tangae fue un ictiosaurio del Triásico superior (241-227 MdA) que medía, al menos, 5 metros de longitud. A diferencia de ictiosaurios posteriores, aún habría nadado como las anguilas. Su dieta era variada, sin especializarse en una presa, usando sus pequeños dientes sin bordes para agarrar a su presa, ahogarla y agitarla para despedazarla como las orcas. 📷Slate Weasel #triasico #triassic

El Mirasaura grauvogeli fue un drepanosaurio del Triásico medio (247 MdA) con prolongaciones cutáneas en el dorso que habría mudado regularmente. Estos apéndices habrían surgido de forma independiente y sin relación con las plumas y pelos desarrollados en otros clados, aunque tienen similitudes con las primeras.📷Gabriel Ugueto #Triasico #Triassic

Helveticosaurus zollingeri fue un diápsido marino del Triásico medio (242 MdA) que vivía en aguas poco profundas. Tenía un método de propulsión singular, pues tanto su potente primer par de patas como el movimiento lateral de su cola le habrían permitido desplazarse por el agua. 📷Mark P. Witton #triasico #triassic

El Faxinalipterus minimus es una pequeña criatura del Triásico tardío (220-215 MdA) dinosauromorfo basal que pertenecería a un clado hermano a los pterosaurios, los popularmente conocidos como "dinosaurios voladores". 📷Márcio L. Castro #fTriasico #Triassic

what I love about the Triassic is it has an intriguing mix of organisms more commonly associated with the Paleozoic, like Temnospondyls, weird Xiphosurans, and Dicynodonts, organisms unique to the Mesozoic, like Pterosaurs and Sauropods, and organisms that are still with us today, like Theropods, Triops, several insect orders, decapods, and so on. Then there's all the things unique to the Triassic: Sharovipteryx, Tanystropheus, and so many more.

Los listrosaurios (Lystrosaurus) fueron unos abundantes dicinodontos que vivieron desde el Pérmico tardío pero que realmente triunfaron en el Triásico temprano, cuando este robusto herbívoro se encontró sin apenas depredadores ni competidores. Vivir en madrigueras posiblemente le permitió sobrevivir al aumento del dióxido de carbono en la atmósfera.📷John Sibbick #permico #permian #triasico #triassic

Here is Caelestiventus hanseni! One of the few #pterosaurs discovered from the #Triassic!
This definitely has one of the best names of any #pterosaur! Its generic name translates to “heavenly wind”, which is definitely up there with #Sordes and #Cryodrakon!

I wish I knew what kinds of #weather changes (if any?) happened when #flying #insects became widespread in the #Carboniferous (or before?), again when flying #pterosaurs became widespread in the #Triassic, a third time when flying #birds became widespread (late #Jurassic or early #Cretaceous), and fourth time when flying #bats became widespread in the #Paleocene.
