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.

It's so impossible for these creatures to reach 300 to 400 feet long.
And mammals that use their snouts for locomotion even though they have perfectly functional limbs are?

Okay guys, before it can start, please do not try to derail the thread, call me exaggerated but these are the messages that lead to that.
If you guys believe the message is too redundant or too obvious, just ignore it.

its impossible for an oceanic animal to be the size of a Blue Whale?

Blue whales are generally in the range of a little under 100ft; these things are 300ft or even 400ft. Also, yes, a macropredatory reptile might have a harder time surviving than a krill-eating whale of the same size.

You really need to drop the attitude with him already. If you're just going to insult him, please save everyone the trouble and don't respond.

i think that's exasperation, not attitude.

He's been warned for insulting Pea in the past and did it again in the caseid thread. Given those past occurrences, this obviously falls under continued hostility. There's no justification for the way he's been responding to Pea.

Hey buddy, do you mind adding something from my project? Not the dumb old one, the plausible new one. I don't have many "big" things, but I think my Frugoscorpius and Mystipoda would qualify. I would love to be involved in something so epic!


pleeeeeeeeez...

The last post was this month. That's pretty dang recent.
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.

Quotes


Phylogeny of the arthropods and some related groups


In honor of the greatest clade of all time

Other cool things

I dont want to be rude, but no, I feel you still need refine details and give a little more quality in your own concepts, sorry.

I'm actually surprised that there's nothing from your own project on there. Especially after posting about an enormous filter-feeding fish. :)

But what do you mean? All my creatures are plausible and I give detailed descriptions about them. I have gotten rid of implausible ones.

Still, you need to refine some things, but you will realize it eventually.

On the other hand, I have started to work on the next updates for new organisms to add, in this case, are not going to be only speculative creatures but real life creatures.

At first, it was assumed that this first chart would contain these on the left side as a way of comparing the larger known species with the largest spec forms, however, as a result, the image become too heavy, in addition to the images contrast too much with those I did.

Posted Image
The total length of the image was approximately 6800x17000, being the specimens added Edmontosaurus, Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus rex, Lion Mane jellyfish, Sequoias, Barosaurus, Jakelopterus, Spinosaurus, Paraceratherium, Palaeoloxodon namadicus, African bush elephan, Blue whale, Quetzalcoatlus,

Red made by Paleop
Tyrannosaurus by JonaGold2000
Sequoias extracted from google
The rest made by me.

It is probable that the sequoias and part of the animals that I have made can return even if only to compare few organism in others charts. But at the end, like the Spec organisms I did, I would make the real ones.
Just the WIP


Also, it is probable that I will begin to make small comparison charts to congregate groups of animals descending of the same species or group, only to expose the radically different one that has come to diverge in each organism in each universe.

Example:

Tyrannosaurs
