  • I love the Cambrian Era fossils, so many strange creatures. I’ve not read Wonderful Life mainly because I’d like an up to date version with the newer discoveries and interpretations…

    Have you ever checked out the Chinese fossils? They are so well preserved the detail is astonishing, often complete with soft tissues! I managed to score a book from Amazon which was massively reduced because of a bit of damage to it

    Just found this which could tick the box for me






  • A lot of nudis seem to be cannibals, I don’t know whether this is from preference or accidentally hoovering up the much smaller ones, probably worth investigating

    Also the man o wars definitely need a post of their own, I love how some sea creatures look like individuals but are giant colonies… then again we have slime molds terrestrially and us humans, and we’re a bit like a giant colony of bacteria wearing a person trench coat

    I’m glad to have learned a bit about your favourite nudi, they’re stunning creatures in every way (btw I have a special nudi post for Halloween, something fun and not very serious) 😀




























  • Fuch yeah! That is amazing!

    So many possibilities… Something frilly or sleak? Maybe neon/pearlescent? Spots, stripes? An Aeolid with a garnish of cerata, or a Dorid with a branchial plume? And don’t forget a pair of magnificent rhinophores and optional Emperor shrimp jockey!

    Holy shit I’m really excited for you! And I’m not the one making the costume or going to the party!

    In fact as an autistic person I’d just spend hours of fun making a costume, and then not go to the party… just wear it at home

    You’ll have to post your outfit when it’s done 😀
