Only some of them! Some of them were like big giant roombas, very friendly.

Rude!

Feels like GSA is really trying to break up with me.

First paper of the year out, looking at the convergent evolution of giant size in eurypterids - revisiting a paper from 2010 with new analytical methods! ⚒️🧪 doi.org/10.1098/rspb...

Convergent evolution of giant size in eurypterids | Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences

Eurypterids—Palaeozoic marine and freshwater arthropods commonly known as sea scorpions—repeatedly evolved to remarkable sizes (over 0.5 m in length) and colonized continental aquatic habitats multiple times. We compiled data on the majority of ...
