We often have birds nesting in the mouth of large Triceratops skull cast on the Mall.

I am only telling you that the government has said. I do not condone it.

The museum is not reluctant to return the fossil. The state government considers the specimen state property and does not allow it to be returned.

Dale thought that traditional reconstructions were too bulky.

Dale Russell had this bizarre notion of emaciated dinosaurs, which Ely ended up painting. Ely was an artist, not a researcher.

It is always just a hypothesis, not a fact.

Don‘t forget his cunning analysis of the ‘Nanotyrannus’ issue, which will leave dino bros slack-jawed.

All of us were worried about the situation until the ICZN provided a statement about procedure.

If the paper has been released online the names are valid provided they have been registered on ZooBank.

But it is all good - imagine all the new rowing records!

I undetstand the perception of COI but I should be allowed to correct mistakes that someone made when they wrote the page. I will just drop my page.

I have done a lot of editing of paleo content - free of charge!

Hans Sues @hanssues.bsky.social · 21/03/2025
… for a mere $600! Supposedly I cannot edit it myself because the monitors might not accept my corrections. So Wikipedia is free but you have to pay a hefty charge to get your entry corrected!

I just learned something that might interest at least some of you. Today I received a message that my Wikipedia page has unspecified ‘multiple problems.’ (I should note that I have no idea who created it originally!) I was told that I should get a professional edit…

It is getting worse every year…

This is just horrendous - not even written in proper English. Was this even reviewed?!

These problems are becoming more and more common. Scientific Reports appears to have low editorial standards.

It was thickly coated so there should not have been loss of actual bone.

The PhyloCode won‘t fix such nonsense. No expert has taken Kischlat‘s ‘replacement’ of the prefectly valid nomen Prestosuchus seriously.

Sadly, no. I speak from extensive firsthand experience. Historian friends tell me the same story. Never let facts stand in the way of a movie script!

Please let me know of I can help with literature etc.

We now have received the two amazing skulls of Nyctosaurus from a wonderful donor.

I get such garbage daily - some of the ‘journal’ titles are hilarious.

Hans Sues @hanssues.bsky.social · 12/03/2025
Yes, it is. The ICZN does not consider names of fantasy creatures at all relevant. You could legitimately name a new genus of tardigrade Godzilla. I just recently dealt with this issue.

It is a brilliant book, which I heartily recommend to all VP aficionados.

I had measles as a child and would not wish it on anyone.

Sadly, they won’t listen to expert advice if it doesn‘t fit their ideas.

It probably depends how far it has developed from prior art.

The absurd obsession with quantity over quality.

Huene wrote very awkward German that makes anyone with a background in German literature cringe.

There may be such models but I am not aware of them. Generally, climatic conditions improved after the early hothouse.

It is from the Middle or Late Triassic. The purported “dead zone” is claimed to have existed during the Early Triassic.

Many evolutionary biologists have a deep interest in the history and philosophy of science.

One of my undergraduate professors was Karlheinz Rothausen. He did his habilitation on the European squalodontids but hardly published anything based on this work. I am glad that there are new studies by you on these interesting cetaceans.

Hans Sues @hanssues.bsky.social · 05/03/2025
I agree - what is new here? This dead zone exists in climate models and has not been tested by fossil evidence. The critical regions have virtually no vertebrate fossil record. It also ignores the fact that some temnospondyls were euryhaline.

There are now countless opportunities for laypersons to learn about science and technology at a level they can understand.

Never been a fan of reading clubs myself.

Indeed - can the media really drop so low?!

Could it be - systemic antisemitism?

That’s outrageous - the pedestrian was not at fault.

That organization probably thought that they could cultivate him as a donor. Incompetent fundraising.

Hans Sues @hanssues.bsky.social · 20/02/2025
You already noted the reason: It is poorly known. I am surprised that no significant new material has been found since the 1920s.

Hans Sues @hanssues.bsky.social · 20/02/2025
Probably a poorly disguised attempt to get funding from you know who 😉

This financial crisis has been brewing for some years but has finally come to a head. A real shame.

This group of theropods really needs a thorough revision. How many taxa actually are there?

I have had one such case in our discipline over the years. The author sent a list of about a dozen colleagues he considered unacceptable. It included every specialist in the field! Needless to say, as editor I ignored this request.

Beautiful illustration.

Awesome - we just definitely confirmed the presence of carcharodontosaurians in Uzbekistan.
