Another #FossilFriday means another opportunity to post about #mekosuchines! This is the amazingly preserved skull of #Baru wickeni, a mekosuchine #crocodylian that lived during the late Oligocene of Australia. The specimen was described in detail by @alcootatooter in 2017. Check out his awesome paper at the link below (it’s #OpenAccess too!):

Hello Mastodon!

As an icebreaker toot, here are the links to my two most recent papers on the #mekosuchine #crocodylian #Trilophosuchus. Both #OpenAccess.
