Great evening at @DorsetMuseum #Dorchester, home of @PliosaurKevan, Goniopholis kiplingi and much else. Thanks to those who came for my talk and those who bought books - I sold my entire stock and could have sold more!

Bumped into @TetZoo at the Dorchester Museum. Slowly transitioning from being a pterosaur person to a Liassic generalist.

Hello Dorset Museum & Art Gallery, hello @PliosaurKevan :) @DorsetMuseum

[Lyme Regis Museum @LymeRegisMuseum]

200 years since extinct reptiles became part of wider scientific discourse! And that's thanks to Mary Anning. Mary found even more fantastic marine reptiles, including Plesiosaurs, after this historic find. Find out all about her amazing life and finds at Lyme Regis Museum. 10/10

This 200-year-old document from 1824 reveals the pioneering work of early geologist William Buckland, as he describes the #Megalosaurus: the first scientifically recognized dinosaur 🦕

We at BGS are lucky enough to have a number of bones mentioned by Buckland in our collection.

Happy 200th Birthday Megalosaurus bucklandii!

#OnThisDay in 1824, William Buckland presented Megalosaurus at a Geological Society of London meeting...

With the discovery of the #SeaRex pliosaur skull last year in Kimmeridge this remarkable find has drawn attention to @DorsetMuseum's very own sea dragon - the fossilised skull of a #pliosaur. Take a closer look https://t.co/hSaTApvjfw

The giant pliosaur skull is a truly fantastic discovery. I hope you enjoyed watching "Attenborough and the Giant Sea Monster".

Pictured here is Phil Jacobs the day he spotted the enormous snout tip. Look at that grin! He deserves a huge amount of credit and kudos.
