The fossil localities of the Piedra Chamana Fossil Forest (Eocene, Peru): a prospectus for research and conservation
The fossil plants of the Piedra Chamana Fossil Forest in northern Peru occur in volcaniclastic rocks of the Huambos Formation dated at 39 Ma (late Middle Eocene). Studies to date have focused on the f...

I'm at the Paläontologisches Museum München this week, working on some long-overdue projects 🙃 They have cool #fossils in the exhibit hall but this is my favorite: a giant slice from the trunk of a redwood #tree (Sequoia sp. ) that was growing in the US ~16 million years ago. 🌲⛏️ #paleobotany

The Palaeontological Association has written to the President of the University of Leicester, requesting that the concerns of the PhD community over the planned redundancy of their supervisors are addressed. [1/3]
What to learn more about the enigmatic organism Prototaxites?? Have a read of our new Quick Guide in @currentbiology.bsky.social It includes another great palaeo-reconstruction of the Rhynie ecosystem from @matt-humpage.bsky.social
