updates on the design

Since it’s been a while since I gave any updates on the designs and I’m finally on break and I have got idea here’s some of the design peaks for you guys

I started to get an idea of the design for Jiko and this is the progress of it. I’m giving her a wild cavewoman look or something that looks rough. I think the black fluff suits her very well.

I finished up her first form but I may put more ruffles on her these are usually called stable forms, and the next one is plan to bloom into a face

Bonus : I also made a small drawing of my AU Oktavia opening her mouth low she barely does this mostly one she doesn’t need to because she can consume food still and talk into it just seems unnecessary and it terrifies the others. I thought this concept was cool how she could break her mask and one of pieces being her actual mouth I think she clearly only does this when she is mad or enraged, but I think it’s a cool

That’s all I got for today

Archovember 2024 Day 21 - Jakapil kaniukura

Jakapil kaniukura was a basal thyreophoran, the group that led to stegosaurs in the Late Jurassic and ankylosaurs in the Cretaceous. In the Early Jurassic, thyreophorans like Scutellosaurus were small and bipedal, eventually becoming the armoured tanks of later eras.

However, Jakapil lived in the Late Cretaceous of Argentina, at the same time as ankylosaurs on other continents, and its discovery represents a previously unknown lineage of thyreophoran in South America. Though fragmentary, its proportions seem to suggest it was bipedal like the early thyreophorans, and it also had distinct teeth that allowed it to chew, rather than shear leaves. Hopefully we can uncover more information about this strange little armored dinosaur in the future.

Jakapil lived in the Candeleros Formation which, in the Late Cretaceous, was an ancient desert called the Kokorkom Desert. This environment was covered in windblown sand, broken up by oases. Here, the tiny Jakapil would have lived in the shadow of sauropods like Limaysaurus and Rayososaurus, and the giant theropod Giganotosaurus. It would have also lived alongside small theropods like Bicentenaria, Buitreraptor, and the alvarezsaurid Alnashetri, as well as pseudosuchians like Araripesuchus, rhynchocephalians like Priosphenodon and Tika, mammals like Cronopio, turtles like Prochelidella, and frogs like Avitabatrachus.

Smite from above

I didn’t have access to my tablet this time which means no digital art atm but I did manage to crank one out on paper this time =>

This is an idea I’ve had for quite some time but I’ve had no success actually putting it on paper before but I think I did it this time! Quite proud of it if I do say so myself~

solo estar en el lugar mas oscuro que ha estado mi mente, solo arrepentirme de ser como soy, solo querer desaparecer porque le quitaría los problemas a quienes amo, solo querer dejar de sentirme horrible conmigo y dejar de ser como soy, solo querer mejorar violentamente para dejar de ser una molestia

sabes que es lo peor? que me dicen que no soy una molestia pero si es así, por qué

por qué cada vez que hago algo o tomo una decisión se presenta un problema? por qué no puedo darme cuenta de los errores pasados y evitarlos en la actualidad? por que no puedo dejar de hacerla sentir mal? por qué me dice que no importa si la hace sentir mal? por que el amor tiene que ser agridulce?

A new species of Araripesuchus with durophagous dentition increases the ecological disparity among uruguaysuchid crocodyliforms

María Lucila Fernández Dumonta, Diego Pol, Paula Bona &Sebastián Apesteguía

Abstract

Notosuchia is a group of crocodyliforms with mostly terrestrial habits that lived during the Mesozoic and up to the Miocene. Within this group Uruguaysuchidae is so far represented by eight species, six of them clustered in the genus Araripesuchus. Two species of this genus, A. patagonicus and A. buitreraensis, come from different localities in Patagonia (Argentina) from the Candeleros Formation (Cenomanian age). Here we present a third species of Araripesuchus from this formation. The new species comes from the same locality as Araripesuchus buitreraensis, but differs in numerous features including the presence of different molariform teeth. The new species was included in a phylogenetic analysis and, in agreement with previous analyses, Uruguaysuchidae is recovered as monophyletic and placed within Notosuchia as the sister clade of Peirosauridae. Uruguaysuchidae includes all species of Araripesuchus as well as Anatosuchus minor and Uruguaysuchus aznarezi. The new species adds new information to the ecological diversity of the group its bulbous molariforms with a quadrangular occlusal surface bounded by mamelons is interpreted as indicative of a durophagous diet, suggesting the presence of niche partitioning between the two sympatric species A. manzanensis and A. buitreraensis.

Campananeyen fragilissimus Lerzo et al., 2024 (new genus and species)

(Braincase of Campananeyen fragilissimus [scale bar = 5 cm], from Lerzo et al., 2024)

Meaning of name: Campananeyen = Las Campanas air [in Mapudungun]; fragilissimus = the most fragile [in Latin]

Age: Late Cretaceous (Cenomanian)

Where found: Candeleros Formation, Neuquén, Argentina

How much is known: Partial skeleton of one individual including parts of the skull, some vertebrae, the hips, and the feet.

Notes: Campananeyen was a rebbachisaurid, a group of sauropods best known for including the bizarre Nigersaurus from the Early Cretaceous of Niger. The preserved portions of the skull in the Campananeyen type specimen had been previously described in a 2016 paper, but were left unnamed at the time. Like in birds, much of the skeleton in sauropods was hollowed out by a complex network of air sacs extending from their respiratory system. In Campananeyen, this hollowing appears to have been particularly extensive, as it exhibits air spaces in the braincase and hip bones that have not been observed in other rebbachisaurids.

candelero concept #2

another concept for a witch I’m still working on her second design. It’s probably going to be smaller than her first form to reference. Either way I should be getting chapter 5 spit out today hopefully

bonus : Mira “goddess” form concept

[makairodonx]

Two different theropods at extreme ends of the size scale drinking together at a pond 97 million years ago in what is now the Candeleros Formation of Patagonia, Argentina: the small, 1.5-meter-long unelagine dromaeosaur Buitreraptor gonzalezorum, which was a fast, agile predator of arthropods, lizards and small mammals, and the enormous 13-meter-long carcharodontosaurid allosauroid Giganotosaurus carolini, a heavily-built ambush hunter which was big enough to prey upon large sauropods such as Andesaurus and Limaysaurus and intimidate its 7 to 8-meter-long abelisaur rival Ekrixinatosaurus. Much like Tyrannosaurus, its future ecological counterpart from North America, Giganotosaurus could also potentially use the thick bosses that adorned its massive head, which completely dwarfed Buitreraptor’s body size, to deliver powerful striking blows to knock out its quarry or to engage each other in intraspecific head or flank-butting contests over territory or mates.

[katborg82]

Giganotosaurus ("Giant Southern Lizard") was one of the largest known carnivores to walk the earth. It lived in Patagonia during the late Cretaceous period (99.6-95 Mya)

Giganotosaurus was a Carcharodontosaurid theropod dinosaur discovered by Ruben Carolini in the Candeleros formation of Patagonia, South America.

Giganotosaurus was a massive apex predator that specialized in hunting some of the largest land animals to ever exist: Titanosaurs. The last of the sauropods and the largest.

Jakapil vs Spicomellus

Jakapil kaniukura

Artwork by @i-draws-dinosaurs, written by @zygodactylus

Name Meaning: Deep Jawed Shield Bearer 

Time: 99 to 97 million years ago (Cenomanian stage of the Late Cretaceous) 

Location: Candeleros Formation, Neuquen and Mendoza, Argentina 

Jakapil is to nonavian dinosaurs as Annakacygna is to birds. This may seem extreme - what could possibly top the cup zoomy swan of filter feeding death - but Jakapil is a weird little dude. It was a bipedal armored dinosaur, similar to the Early Jurassic basal form Scutellosaurus - except, you’ll note, it lived a hundred million years later. At about 1.5 meters long, it was a small dinosaur, again similar to its relative from so long ago. It had rows of osteoderms on its body, and a predentary - unlike other early thyreophorans. It may have diverged from the main thyreophoran group in the Sinemurian, representing a lost lineage of bipedal armored forms that persisted (presumably in South America). However, its classification is a major debate among researchers - many features of the jaw are more similar to Ceratopsians than to Thyreophorans, indicating it may be an armored variant of an early Ceratopsian (which, would be, to say the least, wild) or a completely new clade of Ornithischian altogether! The large amount of wear on its teeth indicates it chewed its food, rather than sheering or chopping it - something only found in a few Ornithischian groups. It lived in a large desert environment, peppered with oases, and filled with a variety of other animals - fish, frogs, tuatara, snakes, turtles, mammals, and other dinosaurs like Andesaurus, Ekrixinatosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Buitreraptor, Alnashetri, and Bicentenaria. 

Spicomellus afer

Artwork by @i-draws-dinosaurs, written by @zygodactylus

Name Meaning: African Collar of Spikes 

Time: 168 to 164 million years ago (Bathonian to Callovian stages of the Middle Jurassic) 

Location: Third Subunit, El Mers Group, Fès-Meknès, Morocco 

Spicomellus is the oldest known Ankylosaur, and also the first described Ankylosaur from North Africa! But that isn’t even the weirdest thing about it! Spicomellus had dermal spikes, fused to the bone, forming a collar (for which it was named) around its neck. Given that the spike were fused to the underlying bone - something no other ankylosaur does - it is probable that it wouldn’t have had a particularly flexible neck, or an easy time moving in general if the pattern continued throughout the body. It probably would have been around 3 meter long at the most, similar in size to other ankylosaurs from the Middle Jurassic. Coming from the El Mers Group, i tlived alongside Cetiosaurus, the stegosaur Adratiklit, megalosaurs, and teleosaurids. Spicomellus adds to a growing diversity of Jurassic Ankylosaurs, showing how Ankylosaurs and Stegosaurs lived alongside each other for a large period of time (the Middle and Late Jurassic epochs) and that the extinction of the Stegosaurs must have been due to a different, unrelated factor.
