A few weeks ago I was looking for a new case for my iPhone. So I browsed around a Chinese internet shop. I came across cases with fossil pictures on the back: Icaronycteris from the Green River Formation, a Seymouria from the Permian, Aipichthys velifer from the Cretaceous of Lebanon, Archaeopteryx from Solnhofen, a fossil turtle (Green River?) and finally a Sparnodus vulgaris from the Eocene of Monte Bolca, Italy. Funny only that this Sparnodus vulgaris seemed so familiar to me! No wonder - the original is in my collection and hangs on the wall in t

Taxonomy from Bannikov & Carnevale, 2017. Bannikov & Carnevale 2017, p. 319:" Its type species, †P. lessinii Blot, 1980, was described based on a single partially complete specimen in the collections of the Museo Civico di Storia Naturale, Verona (Blot, 1980, p. 365; pl. VI, fig. 3). Subsequently, an additional incomplete specimen housed in the Carnegie Museum of Natural History, Pittsburgh, was referred to †P. lessinii and figured by Frickhinger, 1991, p. 769); however, this specimen lacks the characteristic cranial horn emerging just above the orbit considered diagnostic by Blot
