🚨Another little promotional piece, this time from our collaborators in Utah. I hope this blog post will help, even in a small way, to raise awareness among Utahns about the fantastic Cambrian paleontological archive their state holds. @NHMU@BLMUtahnhmu.utah.edu/articles/2024/…
JOB! The Division of Paleontology at the @AMNH seeks an Assistant Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology to start on or after 1st July 2025. For more information see the website:

I´m excited to announce that we have a venue and dates for the next International Congress on Invertebrate Morphology (ICIM-6)! All invertebrate lovers, let's meet in 🇨🇱 next year from August 10th to 14th. 👇👇
Thrilled to see my friend Isabel Desgagné-Penix in this group of esteemed scientists. She’s a force of brilliance, daring & funnnnny. #Innu#FirstNations#BioChemistry#Scholar
Woot, woot!! 🥳🎉🥳 Huge congratulations to this year’s Arthur B. McDonald Fellowship award winners - I believe this is the 1st time all 6 winners are women!! Something to celebrate in an otherwise bleak week. @NSERC_CRSNG - NSERC nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Prizes-Pri…

A GREAT story about museum detective work w/specimen from the Steinbeck/Ricketts era! Behold OCTOPUS HUBBSORUM! featuring Mike Vecchione! #TaxonomyTuesday! smithsonianmag.com/blogs/nat…
Delighted to share our new perspective article @JEvBio: rising evidence suggests unexpectedly robust link btw micro- and macroevolution. It challenges past views of evolution and calls for interdisciplinary research. #Evolution#EvoDevo#Paleontology 1/7

Side-resting evolved many times in #bivalves . Within some species individuals lie indifferently on either their right or left (randomly pleurothetic), whereas in others they lie consistently on one side (left-pleurothetic or right-pleurothetic).

I am very happy to announce that our work on hemichordate gene expression and chromatin accessibility dynamics is now published on Nature Ecology and Evolution! nature.com/articles/s41559-0…
🪸🐟Our new paper is out in @ConLetters this week. In it, we review and discuss in a broader context one of the most fundamental paradigms in reef management and conservation—the parrotfish paradigm: doi.org/10.1111/conl.13058

Snails 🐚 are slow, but they can evolve fast! Our new paper shows how one ecotype evolved into another on a tiny island 🏝️ within 30 years - and that we could predict changes at the phenotypic, but also at the genetic 🧬 level. 1/3

Ever wondered if moths and butterflies are distinct phylogenetic groups? It turns out that butterflies form a monophyletic group, but moths don't. Butterflies are actually nested within moth branches on the phylogenetic tree. #2024MMMpnas.org/doi/full/10.1073/pn…
ALT Dated evolutionary tree of butterfly and moth relationships. The tree shows that butterflies (Papilionoidea) form a monophyletic group (ie a group that consists of all the species that share a single common ancestor, and no species that are not descended from that ancestor) with its origin dating to the Cretaceous Period. Moths are not a monophyletic group, as the figure shows Papilionoidea butterflies nested within the branches of different moth taxa.
