@WFS,World Fossil Society,Riffin T Sajeev,Russel T Sajeev An Extraordinary Gobioid Fish Fossil from Southern France Abstract Background The classification of gobioid fishes is still under discussion. Several lineages, including the Eleotridae and Butidae, remain difficult to characterize because synapomorphies are rare (Eleotridae) or have not yet been determined (Butidae). Moreover, the fossil record of these […]

April 6th, 2018 Riffin @WFS,World Fossil Society,Riffin T Sajeev,Russel T Sajeev Researchers got a rare opportunity to study an underwater volcano in the Caribbean when it erupted while they were surveying the area. The research, published today in the journal Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, provides new insight into the little-studied world of underwater volcanoes. It investigated a volcano named Kick-’em-Jenny (KeJ), […]

WFS News: Patterns of divergence in the morphology of ceratopsian dinosaurs: sympatry is not a driver of ornament evolution
April 3rd, 2018 Riffin @WFS,World Fossil Society,Riffin T Sajeev,Russel T Sajeev The elaborate frills and horns of a group of dinosaurs including Triceratops and Styracosaurus did not evolve to help species recognise each other, according to researchers at Queen Mary University of London. It has been suggested that different species that live in the same location may evolve features […]
