Had a wonderful and productive visit here with Justyna Słowiak—so many tyrannosaurs! 🦖 Justyna is building an exciting career at the Institute of Paleobiology at the Polish Academy of Sciences by leading modern studies of the dinosaurs of the classic Polish-Mongolian Paleontological Expeditions of the 1960s combined with a network of collaborators. I'm lucky to count myself among her collaborators! More to come...!

#FossilFriday I was surprised this week to find that a new dinosaur species bears my name—kindasorta. A specimen of the Mongolian ankylosaurian dinosaur Pinacosaurus that was described in 2003 by Rob Hill, me (Witmer), and the late great Mark Norell was made the holotype of a new species—Pinacosaurus hilwitnorum—in an article this week in Historical Biology by Paul Penkalski. By combining the first three letters of each author's name, he honored our 2003 collaboration (https://bit.ly/4nC5PTU). It's wonderful to see that our article is still relevant, probably mostly because it took on the often bewildering array of apertures and fossae in the narial (nostril) region. The species epithet "hilwitnorum" also was a welcome reminder of a fun project. Rob Hill and I chatted on the phone about it this week and reminisced about a rewarding collaboration in what seemed like simpler times. We both miss Mark, as well. The second image shows Paul Penkalski during a 2015 visit to WitmerLab to study our collection of ankylosaur skulls. His recent article in Historical Biology is here: https://doi.org/10.1080/08912963.2026.2633178.

Tarbosaurus! 🦖 Having a great visit here with Justyna Słowiak of the Institute of Paleobiology at the Polish Academy of Sciences in Warsaw (Instytut Paleobiologii PAN).
1. Lately she's been honing her segmentation skills on a Tarbosaurus braincase (ZPAL MgD-I/4), with some guidance from our resident CT guru Ryan Ridgely. We're already collaborating on brain endocast ontogeny in Tarbosaurus but lots of other new projects are now brewing!
2. The second photo shows Justyna with the full skeleton of the same adult Tarbosaurus specimen (ZPAL MgD-I/4) in the exhibit space at the Museum of Evolution in Warsaw. It's exciting how Justyna and her colleagues in Warsaw are using new techniques like CT scanning to restudy these famous Gobi specimens discovered in the 1960s.

Had a great time this week at the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, culminating in the CurrieFest symposium yesterday, celebrating Phil Currie's 50 years in Alberta and honoring his contributions to paleontology and his profound influence on so many people, myself included!! It was a special day—and a total surprise for Phil! Otherwise, I was in the collections and had a full day on my own in the exhibits! The photos show an amazing complete skeleton of the tyrannosaurid Gorgosaurus (TMP 1999.33.1 ) in the collections of the Tyrrell Museum. This specimen is notable for a number of reasons, especially for having a complete gastral basket (that is, belly ribs called gastralia). Also, having a full day in the exhibits on Monday when the Tyrrell Museum is closed to the public allowed me to climb into several exhibits to study original fossil specimens and also take some great photos of the wonderful exhibits without museum patrons in the way.

It was great to meet up with Jared Voris today at the Royal Tyrrell Museum and study some beautiful juvenile specimens of the tyrannosaurid Gorgosaurus (this one is TMP 2016.014.0001). I'm happy to have played a role in two awesome articles led by Jared: https://doi.org/10.1080/02724634.2021.2041651 & https://doi.org/10.1002/cne.70056. 🦖

#FossilFriday From the depths of the pandemic to a wonderful #OA article out this week in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology — https://bit.ly/48oGPZG — congratulations to Marissa Livius, Jordan Mallon, and the whole team! It's been a blast to dig back into ankylosaurs to sort out the Panoplosaurus-Edmontonia mess. CT scan data wound up being critical to tease apart the nuances among the various specimens referred to these genera. Marissa did a spectacular job with the quite difficult CT data for the main specimen: the holotype skull of Panoplosaurus mirus (CMN 2759). I was able to contribute to the project information based on scans we did of three other specimens referred to these genera (as well as more distantly related ankylosaurs). I'm grateful to have been able to work with Marissa, Jordan, Michael Ryan, and Hillary Maddin!

1. First page of the Livius et al. (2026) article in JVP. Superimposed on the page is a Zoom screen capture of Marissa' master's proposal defense from May 2021 with Jordan , me (Witmer), Hillary, Michael, and Marissa.

2. Photograph of a cast of the holotype skull of Panoplosaurus mirus in the foreground, with some other ankylosaurs lurking in the background (Gastonia, Ankylosaurus, Pawpawsaurus).

3. CT-scan-based volume renders of the P. mirus holotype skull (top), a referred specimen of P. mirus ROM 1215 (middle), and a referred skull of Edmontonia rugosidens AMNH 5381 along with a slice through the snout (bottom).

4. Photos from a May 2025 post (while finalizing details for the manuscript) focusing on the E. rugosidens holotype (USNM 11868). At top right, I'm studying our archaic x-ray film-based versions of the 1998 CT scans. The middle photo shows lateral views of the skull, and the bottom photo shows stereoscopic photos of the ventral surface of the skull.

Excited to report that Ohio University Scripps School of Journalism student Eric Boll published his master's thesis research (which I helped supervise) on aspects of news coverage of paleontology in the 1990s in Historical Biology: https://bit.ly/41VMS4e. It even elicited an editorial: https://bit.ly/4spzQH9! Both are free to read for the next six months. 🦖

Eric's quantitative study focused on three major news sources (USA Today, The Associated Press, and The New York Times), developing a codebook including 16 paleo topics and eight metaphors or tropes and exploring themes such as 'agenda-setting topics' (like maybe Jurassic Park), the importance of tropes and 'mascot species' (like the T. rex in the photo), the role of 'visible scientists' (mostly white dudes portrayed as Indiana Jones types in the '90s), and other interesting topics focused on a decade where paleo was going in many exciting new directions just as the internet was starting to take off. He presented this research at the 2024 SVP meeting and hopes to present a new project at the 2026 SVP meeting in Cleveland.
