A small diorama of the Carboniferous. The trees are Archaeopteris (forefront, purple-ish wood), Lepidodendron (background, brown wood with dark spots lower down, green spots higher up), and Calamites (giant horsetail the size of trees). Small ground plants are Sphenophyllum (bright green), Sphenopteris (tall "tree fern"), and Clubmoss. There is also Prototaxites, once believed to be a type of fungus, but may actually be in a completely unique kingdom of life!
The different varieties of Stromatolites! These are small, medium, large, and full block!
Tullimonstrum, from the Carboniferous Carbondale formation!

We're extremely happy to announce that we are working with the YouTuber @gneiss.name on a Geological Timeline project! Here's a little sneak peek at some of the things we've made! All assets we contribute will eventually be in PF!

We hit 1000 Twitter followers! To thank everyone, meet Sinraptor! These dinos from Upper Shaximiao biomes are less aggressive but no less dangerous than other theropods. Their bites will inflict bleeding, followed by stalking and circling.
