It's #FossilFriday, let's dive into some amazing fossil lobsters from France! A recent article from some colleagues at the @cr2p.bsky.social studied beautifully preserved lobsters from La-Voulte-sur-Rhône (162 Mya). X-ray synchrotron tomography revealed internal soft organs and even allowed sexing!

This fossil plant is hands down the best fossil I've come across in the wild 🌿 Both @geologyjohnson.bsky.social and I squealed with excitement at this fossil find! Look at the detail 😍 Whitby plant beds, Ravenscar group Middle Jurassic (aalenian stage) #FossilFriday #paleontology #geology

This is the third paper from my thesis 👏. This time focusing on paleobiogeographical interpretations with 6 unique species. Fossil wood is a treasure trove of information waiting to be unearthed 🌳. Many thanks to @annbot.bsky.social for this thread #fossilwood #paleobotany #gondwana

Super cool charity cross of the MNHN we did with some colleagues and students this Sunday morning in the Jardin des Plantes of Paris 🏃‍♀️. The sun was here to cheer us ☀️😃. @cdelrio.bsky.social @mat-bod-evo-23.bsky.social @cr2p.bsky.social @mnhn.fr
