Transitions: The Evolution of Life

Transitions Site of the Week

Filed under: Interactive Web Sites, Site of the Week - afarensis @ 4:49 pm

This week I have chosen The Paleontology Portal as the site of the week. The Paleontology Portal contains a wide variety of resources. For example, there are pages for K-16 teachers and students, fossil galleries and collections (on the collections page you can search collections in Museums and Universities).
Some pics from the site:

Eucrotaphus trigonocephalus

Dromomeryx borealis

Nothrotheriops

And thousands more!
If you ever encounter someone who says we don’t have a lot of fossils - this would be one site to send them to!
Additionally, the site contains hundreds of links:

Mammals or Reptiles for example. Speaking of reptiles here are a few fossils:

Pachyrhinosaurus

Chelydridae

And here are a few amphibians:

Milneria

Trimerorhachis

Also, some fish:

Priscacara liops

Heliobatis radians

There is much, much more at the site. Check it out!
