It was my great pleasure to contribute to two of the book chapters (links below for the chapters). What an amazing continuation of a tradition! This book series is a great starting point for any people who are interested in the research in fish biology @MCZHarvard @HarvardOEB

Visit @HarvardMuseum to see MCZ ant and termite specimens. This new exhibit features some of the largest ants, some of the smallest ants, and ants that use their heads as doors to their nests! #mczEntomology

Ancient ‘Dune’-like Sandworm Existed Far Longer Than Thought - read about a newly described species that was found in our collections by MCZ/@HarvardOEB invertebrate paleontologists @KNanglu and @InvertebratePal nytimes.com/2024/03/26/sci…
For a perfect #WormWednesday, @InvertebratePal and I can introduce our newest species Selkirkia tsering! This worm is from the ~475 million year old Fezouata fauna, and has important implications for how we understand early animal diversification! tinyurl.com/3p3m5yh2

Here postdoc Robert Brocklehurst gives a seminar on How Do Turtles Breathe? for the @HarvardOEB course What Makes a Turtle? which utilizes MCZ herpetology specimens for its weekly labs. The course is taught by Faculty-Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology Stephanie Pierce @MCZpaleo
Students of OEB 56: The History and Evolution of Life on Earth, taught by MCZ Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology and @HarvardOEB Prof. Javier Ortega-Hernández and Prof. Nadja Drabon, are spending spring break in southern Utah, visiting Paleozoic and Mesozoic fossil localities.
Clam you believe it?! The common name for Plicatula species is kitten’s paws! 😻This is Plicatula marginata, a tiny saltwater clam from the Tertiary of North Carolina. #Kittens #Clams #MCZInvertPaleo #FossilFriday
How could evolution have shaped so many winged birds like the emu, ostrich, and kiwi with no ability to fly? This question fascinated Scott Edwards, Agassiz professor of evolutionary biology @HarvardOEB and ornithology curator at @MCZHarvard. #Harvard harvardmagazine.com/2024/03/how-bi…
It's spring break and MCZ director, curator of Invertebrate Zoology and @HarvardOEB professor Gonzalo Giribet is in Panama with OEB51: Biology and Evolution of Invertebrate Animals, soaking up sun and looking for all the amazing marine invertebrates.

With the completion of a years-long project called openVertebrate, the insides of more than 13,000 museum specimens are seeing the light of day. sciencenews.org/article/3d-ani…
We wanted to start the day with the delightful oVert wrap celebration video (volume up) 🎉🎉🎉 because it was a huge collaborative work to unlock museum collections for the world to explore: youtube.com/watch?v=1VqLsN… #oVertTCN #EarWorm #FlyingTurtle
It's a wrap! 🎉🎉🎉 With the completion of #oVertTCN, the doors of natural history museum collections have been digitally unlocked allowing scientists, educators, artists & the public to interact with specimens in ways never before possible. Story: floridamuseum.ufl.edu/science/scient…

Ernst Mayr Grant recipient Manuel Barria visited the MCZ from the University of Panama to review type material and identify Phyllophaga (May beetles) specimens in our collection from Panama. He also identified other species of Phyllophaga from Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela.
Do #fish swimming in a #school actually save energy? A🧵on this as our paper in @eLife elifesciences.org/articles/90352 by @TheYangfanZHANG addresses this question. This is a challenging issue to study: energy use by a school should be compared to solitary locomotion

The support of @MCZHarvard @MCZpaleo was critical as always, and @yalepeabody also provided additional specimens. Deng Wang and Jean-Bernard Caron @ROMtoronto @UofT_Palaeo provided crucial comparative material. Finally, our work on Fezouata is supported by @NSF
