#perucetus

[opabinia--regalis]

the complete transition from basal whippomorphs to ambulocetids to basilosaurids to modern whales!

[barghest-land]

the last flocking of the year, happened to be very sleepy and very blue. Parapuzosia, Aerosteon, Carinodens and Perucetus.

Please welcome Perucetus, the new - and largest- known archeoceti.

A whale of enormous proportions. While it's exact size and weight is certainly a matter of heated debates it was no doubt a really big boi. Here a quick sketch of it approaching a time traveler.

P is for...?

All of the P names in my Paleo Party! Are there any I'm missing?

Notes:

Not pictured - Pomatrum and Paradoxides. I ran out of space ;u;

The Paddlefish as a general family are still alive today. I intended to make the Chinese Paddlefish specifically, but turns out I drew a different species! They're still technically a living fossil so they count lol

Reconstruction of Perucetus colossus in its coastal habitat; the associated sawfish, Pristis, was recovered from the same unit in the East Pisco Basin, the Yumaque Member of the Paracas Formation, Peru.
