Speculative biology is simultaneously a science and form of art in which one speculates on the possibilities of life and evolution. What could the world look like if dinosaurs had never gone extinct? What could alien lifeforms look like? What kinds of plants and animals might exist in the far future? These questions and more are tackled by speculative biologists, and the Speculative Evolution welcomes all relevant ideas, inquiries, and world-building projects alike. With a member base comprising users from across the world, our community is the largest and longest-running place of gathering for speculative biologists on the web.

While unregistered users are able to browse the forum on a basic level, registering an account provides additional forum access not visible to guests as well as the ability to join in discussions and contribute yourself! Registration is free and instantaneous.

>implies birds aren't reptiles

Please don't temp the cladistic pedants.
Ho ho ho. Oh feeble one. It's not called being pedantic. It's called being reasonable.
Projects
Punga: A terraformed world with no vertebrates
Last one crawling: The last arthropod

ARTH-6810: A world without vertebrates (It's ded, but you can still read I guess)

Potential ideas-
Swamp world: A world covered in lakes, with the largest being caspian sized.
Nematozoic: After a mass extinction of ultimate proportions, a single species of nematode is the only surviving animal.
Tri-devonian: A devonian like ecosystem with holocene species on three different continents.

I don't see why pointing out a simple fact is annoying.

The problem is that you do it too much, is unnecessarily and it does not come to the conversation, in any occasion that appears even the smallest detail, the same with the semantic.
Projects

"Active" projects

The Future is Far
Welcome to the next chapters of the evolution of life on earth, travel the across the earth on a journey that goes beyond the limits, a billion years of future history in the making.

The SE giants project
Wonder what is the big of the big on speculative evolution? no problem, here is the answer

Coming one day
Age of Mankind
Humanity fate and its possible finals.

The Long Cosmic Journey
The history outside our world.

The alternative paths
The multiverse, the final frontier...

Holocene park: Welcome to the biggest adventure of the last 215 million years, where the age of mammals comes to life again!
Cambrian mars: An interesting experiment on an unprecedented scale, the life of a particular and important period in the history of our planet, the cambric life, has been transported to a terraformed and habitable mars in an alternative past.
Two different paths, two different worlds, but same life and same weirdness.

Your right. I am pretty nit picky at times.

Omniautem Carnivorans: an inversion of Serina-style projects, where every chordate of the holocene is introduced to a terraformed planet except carnovrans, and the project focuses on species which fill the niches.
Current/Completed Projects
- After the Holocene: Your run-of-the-mill future evolution project.
- A History of the Odessa Rhinoceros: What happens when you ship 28 southern white rhinoceri to Texas and try and farm them? Quite a lot, actually.

Future Projects
- XenoSphere: The greatest zoo in the galaxy.
- The Curious Case of the Woolly Giraffe: A case study of an eocene relic.
- Untittled Asylum Studios-Based Project: The truth behind all the CGI schlock
- Riggslandia V.II: A World 150 million years in the making

Potential Projects
- Klowns: The biology and culture of a creepy-yet-fascinating being

That sounds a bit boring. Any insectivores, primates, or marsupials would take over instead. Not mention all of the major herbivore groups are still around. It'd be like an over-stuffed Australia, or something.

A terraformed planet where the only vertebrate introduced is the European pond turtle. Or the painted turtle.

Also want to shout out to Sheather's Tuaterra idea because the tuatara is my favorite extant reptile.

Sorry, Rebirth. I already called dibs on that.


To quote my signature:

CHELON: A terraformed planet/artificial habitat dominated by the descendants of pond turtles. Essentially Littoralis's twin sibling.

European pond turtles, to be exact


Sheather's also doing his own tortoise based project as well, called Tortuga.

From what I understand the project in question, Tortuga, is still in the early stages of development. The idea is that Sheather wants to do another Serina style project in the same universe, but using a different planet with lower gravity and an even sparser group of founding species than Serina.

Can't wait for that, especially to find out what becomes of the tortoises and what the sparse other species introduced to the planet are.

Will he eventually actually do Tuaterra as well?
