Currently working on one with the "ravine-dwelling titanopteran native to Dusa" part. Perhaps they could be relatives?
Sure thing, although yours would be smaller I presume, because of course you need to be reasonably large to specialize on vertebrates; I'm thinking somewhere around 32-40cm in wingspan, obviously would be huge. Just posted my group.

I've been on a big project work spree lately(this is a good way to avoid doing things I actually need to do...) - is there a limit to how often we can post? Is one submission a day OK, or should I wait a bit longer in between?
I have a bunch of extra material for my 2 existing submissions, then I've got another 2 plants, an environment profile, some dimorphodonts, some birds and 3 field guide-style spreads of fish, gastropod and lepidoptera ideas along with some small mammals/synapsids. (example): Spoiler: click to toggle  . Hope that is not too much...I don't want to flood the project 
Is anyone else working on any fish? Would anybody else like to work on fish with me?

I got a few ideas myself:
Moose/boar like proboscideans from Telu. Beaver-like dicynodonts. Dilophosaurs with dagger claws (like those of megaraptorans). Bipedal, robust, fluffy and heavily armored thyreophoran that's got only one clawed stubs for arms. 4 m long alligator-ish phytosaurs from Isa. Lemur/wallaby like omnivorous eosimians that live in rocky areas (probably mountains). Bobcat sized arboreal, quoll-like herpetotheriid from Isa that feeds on small vertebrates. Roe deer-sized dichobunid from Telu with both horns and babyrousa-like tusks. 50 cm toad-like temnospondyls with thick and short tails. A wolverine-like morgie from Telu, but much smaller. Pig-ish quadrupedal heterodontosaurids.

Well, it really depends whether the people who suggested those things want to or are planning use them. Probably best to ask them first.
On the topic of ideas, would a symbiotic relationship between a bush and a eusocial hymenopteran (nectar in exchange for protection) be plausible in the context of BW?

I don't see why such a relationship couldn't evolve, but it depends on what kind of hymenopteran you had in mind. A bee is more likely to evolve this relationship than an ant for example.

Yes but the ant isn't exchanging nectar. The tree provides a home in return for the ants defence of it whereas a bee could gain nectar in return for its defence of a plant.
Apologies I didn't realise the tree did provide nectar. I still think a bee is a more suitable insect though.

I wonder if there would even be ants in the first place. Even Hawaii has no native ant species. I guess maybe some floated in on a log or something.

Devil's gardens are where I got the idea from.
Most likely, though, the Anisian version wouldn't have ants per se.
