Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Stephen Curro discuss Tanidromites nightwishorum, a crab named after the Finnish symphonic metal band that has nothing whatsoever notable about it and is thusly the first truly bite-sized Paleo Bites episode. We might have more of these to discuss species with very little info about them but are still notable somehow. I mean, it’s in the name of the show! From the Late Jurassic, this little decapod lived in the beaches of the very much now landlocked country of Austria. So that’s neat. I guess. Please still support the show, everybody!
