Jesse Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Hello all, This is a paper that my adviser just had published on early boring activity of beetles. Pretty good read if your into petrified wood or early insects. http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0031668 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opisthotriton Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Nice paper! PLoS is rapidly becoming one of the best paleontology journals, and it's free for everyone to read! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Your welcome! I have been hearing about for the past 2 years and got to look at many of the samples, it is pretty cool to see the borings under magnification! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandomas Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Thanks Jesse, interesting paper, and I like the PLOsone way to publish stuff free for all.

Jesse Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Your welcome guys! I will tell my boss, Dr. Leif Tapanila, that you enjoyed his research, I always joke that no one cares about beetles that it is all about the sharks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nandomas Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (edited) Your welcome guys! I will tell my boss, Dr. Leif Tapanila, that you enjoyed his research, I always joke that no one cares about beetles that it is all about the sharks! yep, Jesse, he is right, but... in the meanwhile, please put some Helicoprion swirly teeth in the Museum, so I will enjoy them this spring )) Edited February 23, 2012 by Nandomas Erosion... will be my epitaph! http://www.paleonature.org/ https://fossilnews.org/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 We are going to make a very large Helicoprion exhibit, stuffed with Ray Troll art and some top secret stuff that is going to blow peoples minds! However it will not be done in the spring, probably late fall-early winter at best. But let me know when you plan to be there and I will make sure I am there and will give you a private tour of all the whorl-toothed sharky goodness. We are up to 31 specimens!

Auspex Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Jesse, you have no idea how much I would love to feel my lungs full of Idaho air, and get an interpreted look at 31 Helicoprion specimens! This is the sort of thing I would retire for, if I could...<sigh> "There has been an alarming increase in the number of things I know nothing about." - Ashleigh Ellwood Brilliant “Try to learn something about everything and everything about something.” - Thomas Henry Huxley >Paleontology is an evolving science. >May your wonders never cease!

Jesse Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Auspex, I all but live at the museum year round so plan a vacation pretty much any time and I will be there. We are also planning to put the aforementioned exhibit on the road at some point in the future so hopefully if nothing else some of the sharks will put in an appearance in a city near you!
