Lemuria Flocking #1 (28/06/2025)

Joschua is in Poland atm so for this week's #Paleostream Gnath and I hosted a #LemuriaChallenge themed flocking where we sketched Megalognathus, The Harbinger Bird (Unusqui scitpericuli), Cervidactylus elegans, and The Last Stegosaur (Deimaximerror cacasexano)

Lemuria Phase II canonised taxa list (Part 4)

This is part 4 of my list of the 43 canonised taxa I had in the #Paleostream #LemuriaChallenge going environment by environment and showcasing their original submissions, you can find part 3 here

The Central Wetlands:

Pseudoanthos maiae (Iunturodentephyllum lemurensis) (Williamsonispina acuta) (repeat!)

The last piece for Lemuria Phase I

The peaks of Lemuria during the Cretaceous were often snow covered but in the valleys and on the plateaus animal and plant life can thrive. Here the last Refugium of stegosaurs lies.

THE LAST STEGOSAUR was one of the points on our clade list for the phase. And subsequently we got a lot of submissions with suggestions on who this species should look and where it should live. Unfortunately non of the submissions satisfied me completely, but many elements presented I liked a lot. So relatively early on I decided to turn this into a waste basket taxon. I chose 8 of my favarite designs and took parts of and puzzled them into a new genus that was named, on stream: Deimaximerror.

On Lemuria

Lemuria is a new spec evo project for and by the #paleostream community. Like the Atlantis project beforehand it deals with a fictional piece of land in 3 phases. Lemuria is an already existent concept that was invented before the recognition of plate tectonics to explain certain distribution patterns of animals and plants. In our case Lemuria is a continent consisting of India and Madagascar. We speculate how animals and plants would evolve if these two would never separate. This has MANY consequences. And the further we progress through time the more natural history will change. Phase one deals with the Cretaceous, when things are still rather "normal".

Submission i made with @goji9947 (Nychu5) for lemuria

The text is under read more as well as the bat alone

"Binomial Name: Lithodontus pogorugosus "Rough-Chinned Stone Tooth"

Common Name: "Spectacled Batbear"

Creators: Nychu5 (Concept, Colouring, Name/Desc) & Areu_Blai (Concept, Lineart, Shading)

Clade: Hassianycteridae, descended from Triloboii's 'Eurygnathonycteris'

Size: Approx. 12cm long, 49cm in wingspan

Ecology: Aerial Coastal Durophage

Habitats: Coastal, Delta, Ephemeral Wetland

Additional Information: The Lithodontus lineage's ancestral taste for molluscs has not abated in lemuria's Pleistocene epoch. Lithodontus will still use its powerful teeth and jaws, most effectively the massive molars in the back of its mouth from which its name is derived, to crush snails, but these bats have now ventured out to Lemuria's coastlines, where most of their diet is derived from crunching the shells of oceanic mollusics and small crustaceans. While it would prefer to fly off in the event of encroaching water, the larger foot claws, double wing claws and more powerful wing muscles of Lithodontus enable it to cling to rocks tightly enough that it can endure small waves, though afterwards they will retreat elsewhere to dry off. Its chin has become rough and hard, a feature which can be used to pry mussels off of rocks along with its specialised teeth."

Some entries for @knuppitalism-with-ue 's most recent spec evo challenge, Lemuria. I kinda went a lot into sauropods, but will try to steer more into Notosuchia from here on out.

The current entries consist of 1) a small monogamous rainforest sauropod 2) a large solitary desert wanderer 3) a hippo-like swamp dweller 4) an aggressive native of the mountains 5) a pig-like peirosaurid

Part I / III of my Lemuria Phase I submissions!

I hope they are readable lol

Here’s a size chart of all of my lemuria submissions for phase 1.5

Holy shit

This took an hour to do and holy heck did I make many goobers

ngl wish I did more
