** All dinosaurs, save for the heterodontosaurids, compsognathids and pseudobirds perish during the extinction event.
** Angiosperms never had the chance to arise as the ancestors that led to them in our timeline were wiped out during the impact event, leading to strange plants dominating the ecosystems.
** The teleosts die out completely as the result of the [[RuleofThree last of three catastrophic anoxic events dubbed "Bad Water".]]
** The lepidopterans (moths, butterflies and kin) remain in the shadows of the kalligrammatids, butterfly-like insects that are the dominant pollinators of the post-Jurassic Impact world.
