If anyone finds something cool, screenshot it and share it (with alt-text describing what it is!)

I searched for "Stegosaurus" and got _Osteology of the Armored Dinosauria_ by Charles Whitney Gilmore , 1914

A link to the internet archive copy, bc reasons:
https://archive.org/details/osteologyofarmor00gilm/page/n6/mode/2up

I think this volume is still referenced by paleontologists working on stegosaurs today; see for example the description of Miragaia

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2674496/pdf/rspb20081909.pdf

and search for Gilmore

A teaser for our book, THE SECRET LIVES OF DINOSAURS, written by Dr Dean Lomax, illustrated in colour by me, & published by Columbia University Press.

Each chapter helps to reveal a unique narrative of the grand cycle of life, based on extraordinary evidence of behaviours written in the rocks.

Out September 2025. Pre-order now!

#Dinosaurs didn’t roar like in ‘Jurassic World’: Some could sing like birds.

The mystery of the sounds made by colossal extinct reptiles takes a new turn following the discovery of a fossilized larynx similar to the vocal organs of avian species

My 25 years of palaeoart chronology...

A Psittacosaurus creche (fossils show these babies lived in groups possibly with an adult carer), from DINOSAUR BEHAVIOUR (2023), by Prof Michael Benton (published by Princeton University Press).
