Leptarctine mustelids are Neogene carnivorans with fossil records in Asia and North America. In the 170 years since the clade was erected, all taxa within this clade have been characterised based on c...

NHM's new Ornithology Collections Manager, Juliana Soto-Patiño, discovers the evolutionary origins of the mysterious Sapayoa aenigma through its parasitic louse

Sympatry of numerous predatory marine reptiles appears to be the rule rather than the exception in many Mesozoic formations, implying that these lineages are likely to have evolved some form of ecolo...

Historically, humeri and femora have been treated as diagnostic elements for fossil phocid (Carnivora, Pinnipedia, Phocidae) identification. This resulted in the naming of a plethora of extinct phoci...

Following the Ocean Census-JAMSTEC expedition, scientists have confirmed the discovery of 38 new species and identified 28 further potential new species across two of Japan’s most understudied deep-sea regions: the Nankai Trough and the Shichiyo Seamount Chain.

Abstract. The fossil record is one of our only direct insights into the lives of extinct species. In recent years, the development of biomechanical and aer
