I am about to embark on a solo journey through the marine fossil deposits of the Cenozoic Murray Basin. I'll try and live toot it from my crappy little phone but don't know if that will work. First stop are the Pliocene micaceous sands of the North West Bend Formation near Murray Bridge, where there the sand dollar Fellaster incisa can be found.

It's always fascinating when new prehistoric animal species are uncovered.

Once Upon A Time, there were GIANT platypus...
A newly discovered species of three-foot-long (one-meter-long) platypus, dubbed Obdurodon tharalkooschild, swam through freshwater pools in Australian forests about 5 to 15 million years ago, according to a new study.

It’s #FossilFriday! This is the skull of #Kambara implexidens, a #crocodylian from the #Eocene of Australia. Kambara is the oldest named crocodylian genus from the #Cenozoic Era of Australia.
