🦐 A newly identified species of shrimp has been named in honour of the people of Glasgow - Tealliocaris weegie. New research published in an RSE journal by researchers @NtlMuseumsScot and @hunterian has forever identified it as a Glaswegian crustacean. rse.org.uk/?p=46718

@GeolSocGlasgow @hunterian

Dates for GeoNatter at Kelvin Hall, Glasgow. An opportunity to have a chat about all things geological and show your pet rocks for discussion and identification.

@incisorial @palaeokatie @hunterian There are quite a variety of sharks from Bearsden with a variety of different 'brush' types or lack thereof (Falcatus, Orestiacanthus, Denae, Akmonistion, Helodus, Deltoptichius, iniopterygians, and Tristychius - as well as this big skull with no brush/teeth on top of the head)

Happy #FossilFriday, here’s another belter from the awesome @hunterian collections! This is the skull of stethacanthus, a shark-like chondrichthyan that once inhabited the tropical brackish water lagoons of Bearsden around 330 million years ago! LOOK AT THOSE TEETH 😍🖤

@palaeokatie @incisorial @hunterian I'm not sure this shark has a brush complex at all. There are no teeth on the top of the head as Akmonistion does, do at least a different animal.

@incisorial @hunterian Yeah it’s the same locality, I’m not sure it has the same brush complex as akmonistion though - @JurassicClark1 will know 😀

@GeoNatter Come along to the University of Glasgow shop today (Wed 5th July 2023) at 1.25pm if you would like to join a geology tour of the buildings.

Great fun! #gold #scottish m.facebook.com/story.php?stor…

The next geo natter is tomorrow (Wednesday the 1st March) from 1:30-3pm in Kelvin Hall. Everyone is welcome to come along and chat rocks! Tomorrrow’s theme is ammonites! 🤩
