Congratulations to @jeremywyman.bsky.social et al 2025 for the publication of their Oxroadia paper! And thanks for bringing me onboard to do some restorations of this relative of Lepidodendron and Isoรซtes from the Carboniferous of Scotland.

Yutyrannus trio closing in on Dongbeititan ๐Ÿฆ• inspired by how the original material for Yutyrannus was a trio of individuals possibly indicating social behavior, and then the limited material for Dongbeititan includes a rib bone with a theropod tooth embedded! #paleosky #yutyrannus #dongbeititan

Weird indeed...and when I talked with him, he had the Thesis Data too. This paper is basically again Ettaki et al. 2000-2007 papers in a mixmash and some more clear data about algae, so maybe was done time ago and just published now.
