Paleodrama! Specimen of the Pliocene clam Astarte obliquata from the Netherlands escaped an almost certain death by a drilling snail 3(!) times. #FossilFriday #paleo #fossil #paleontology #snails adielklompmaker.com/images/s…

Most sea urchins have spines covered in a layer of tissue. Pencil urchins- Eucidaris tribuloides shown here- don't. That means the spines serve as a hard substrate for other inverts (barnacles, serpulid worms, bryozoans, hydroids, etc) to settle on. A traveling habitat! #1001jars

Here is @biolojenn at her field site in Bastrop, TX and with Joe Milligan in New Mexico. Joe is growing sycamores as part of his research but the rainfall this week has made things a bit more complicated. #dayofscience #scienceathon

Sometimes samples need a bit of work before you can use them. Here is master’s student Jenn Wagner (@biolojenn) prepping fossil leaves and PhD candidate Lyndsay DiPietro putting clay samples in a centrifuge. #dayofscience #scienceathon
