When frequent and reliable passenger rail service is available, people choose to take the train.
Yet some of our fastest-growing communities don't have that option. That's why we're working with states and @USDOT to deliver our first major passenger rail expansion in 50+ years!

The Tarumania paper is out! We finally got genomic data for this rare characiform, estimated its phylogenetic placement, estimated the tarumaniid-erythrinid split during the Paleogene, and discussed its natural history and ecomorphological adaptations.

The giant filter-feeding fish Leedsichthys is named after a person, not the city, but WAS first found in England. New remains from Chile were published this week, along with several other Jurassic fishes: peerj.com/articles/13739/ #SciArt #FossilFriday #OpenAccess

Do you need models of dogfish #shark chondrocrania that your students can actually handle? With the endocranial cavity and foramina for all the cranial nerves? And at 2X life size so they can actually see the anatomy? DM or email us at [email protected] for more info!

Worth checking out just for the scans of the skulls of long-extinct crocodile relatives (many of which didn't work nearly as hard for the same bite force). Congrats to @kalebsellers and other authors!

Published yesterday, meet #Honghesaurus, a marine reptile from the Triassic of China. It might look a bit like a plesiosaur, and it seems to be related those much later, much larger animals! #OpenAccess in @SciReports #FossilFriday #SciNews

To continue celebrating our Shop opening, today we're featuring the #artists & #designers whose creative work made our shop items possible! First up is member Michael Fath! In addition to his skill at stippling, Mike has developed his own silhouette style. #sciart (1/5)

ALT Photograph of member Michael Fath with the following text: Illustrator is Mike’s tool of choice. In addition to his skill at stippling, Mike has developed his own style of animal silhouette mosaics. He used this technique to create Diversity in the Fish Body and Diversity on the Wing. Mike is currently a candidate PhD student in Biology at Tufts University in Medford, MA.

Excited that the 1st chapter of my dissertation on 🐐 🐠 is submitted! We examine their phylogeny, morphology, & overall weirdness. I can’t thank enough the real dream team of @linnealungstrom @fishladylily @mwestneat 👏🏻
Check it out! biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

"Cities can reduce their transport-related fuel consumption by ~25% through combinations of more compact land use&the provision of less car-dependent transport infr. Appropriate infr. including protected pedestrian/bike pathways, can support much greater localised active travel."

If you follow us, you probably know that dinosaurs weren't lizards, but the giant aquatic mosasaurs were true lizards, and were surprisingly diverse in their ecology, per new study: doi.org/10.1111/pala.12590 🎨 of #Prognathodon by @SerpenIllus
