📣 New paper alert 📣 Led by Simon Wills using machine learning methods to classify tiny theropod teeth from the UK Middle Jurassic, confirming early records of maniraptorans & possibly a therizinosaur 🦖🦖🦖 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sp…

I have a far too long and complex paper out cataloguing every known (well, known to me) pterosaur sternum. It's been a bit of a labour of love but it's finally done and out now. Here's a brief summary and link to the actual MS: archosaurmusings.wordpress.com/2023/04/20/eve…

Stay tooned for new publication announcements coming later today on this page…

A new ctenochasmatid pterosaur with a large bony crest and unusual teeth adds to the known diversity of pterosaurs from the Solnhofen archipelago Authors: David W. E. Hone, René Lauer, Bruce Lauer, and Frederik Spindler Full paper: palaeo-electronica.org/content/2023/3…

here is my little portrait of the new Solnhofen boy Petrodactyle, say what you want, I like the name also because Petro... sounds also a little like Peter, like Peter Wellnhofer ;)

#fossilfriday - our latest #educationaloutreach program at Edison Middle School, Wheaton Cusd 200 to complement #earthscience curriculum on #geology and #paleontology. Thanks to the students and faculty. Bruce Lauer Rene' Lauer LauerFoundationPSE.org

Lauer Foundation for Paleontology, Science and Edu was happy to celebrate with Andy Heckert AppState Geo&Env Sci present and alumni students at #2024SVP. Their research of our Homestead Triassic microfossil site is adding important new data & publications about east central New Mexico fossils. 1/3

#2024SVP - Bruce Lauer, Rene' Lauer presented a poster on two new coprolite ichnogenera Struocopros catapitostromata and Alococopros milnei. Publications - Chris Duffin and David Ward, (2023, 2024) Natural History Museum, London housed in the Lauer Foundation for Paleontology, Science and Edu collection. 1/2

2/2 the study sought to identify the types and producers of these coprolite specimens. The species name milnei honors author A.A. Milne, creator of the children’s Winnie-the-Pooh character & story of “Pooh sticks” due to the stick-like nature of some of the Moroccan coprolites.
