Achelousaurus horneri skull, collected in Glacier County, Montana, at the Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana.
The Ceratopsidae are those dinosaurs with head frills.  There are three large subgroups of Ceratopsidae: Centrosaurinae, Ceratopsinae, and Chasmosaurinae. The Triceratopsini are a "tribe" of the Chasmosaurinae -- a genus so vast that it gets the special name "tribe".  The Pachyrhinosaurini are a "tribe" within the Centrosaurinae.

Achelousaurus is a genus within the Pachyrhinosaurini.  So far, only three skulls and some limited skeletal remains have been collected anywhere in the world -- and all of them in Montana.  Their bony frills are quite similar to the Styracosaurus albertensis, although their other skull features (such as big bony bosses on the nose and behind the eyes) are not.

Reconstructed skull of Jaxartosaurus aralensis Riabinin, 1937. Only a posterior portion of the skull, as well as a surangular is known, with the rest of the skull being based mostly upon File:Aralosaurus skull.png. Jaxartosaurus is currently classified as a basal lambeosaurine, more derived than Aralosaurini, but more primitive than Parasaurolophini and Lambeosaurini. It might be more derived than Tsintaosaurini (Godefroit et al., 2004). References:

fossile Dinosauria extinction mammifères
Un mammifère préhistorique récemment découvert pourrait détenir des indices sur la façon dont la vie a survécu à l’extinction des dinosaures. La minuscule espèce, Cimolodon desosai, vivait il y a 75 millions d'années et possédait des caractéristiques, comme un petit corps et un régime alimentaire varié, qui augmentaient probablement ses chances de survie. Trouvé en Basse-Californie, le fossile comprend de rares restes squelettiques qui révèlent comment il se déplaçait et vivait. Les chercheurs pensent que sa lignée a aidé les mammifères à endurer l’un des événements les plus meurtriers sur Terre.

Les vaisseaux sanguins découverts dans les os de T. rex réécrivent la science des dinosaures
os ADN fossile Dinosauria Tyrannosaurus
L’ADN des dinosaures est peut-être encore hors de portée, mais les scientifiques découvrent quelque chose de presque aussi passionnant : d’anciens vaisseaux sanguins cachés dans des os fossilisés. Dans un énorme Tyrannosaurus rex surnommé Scotty, les chercheurs ont découvert un réseau de vaisseaux préservés dans une côte qui s'était fracturée et avait commencé à guérir il y a 66 millions d'années. Grâce aux puissants rayons X synchrotron des accélérateurs de particules, ils ont pu observer l'intérieur du fossile dense sans l'endommager, révélant des structures complexes et riches en fer.

Des poulpes géants et redoutables auraient pu autrefois régner sur les mers anciennes, selon de nouvelles recherches qui renversent le scénario de leur passé évolutif. En découvrant des mâchoires fossiles superbement préservées cachées dans la roche, les scientifiques ont révélé que les premières pieuvres de l’âge des dinosaures n’étaient pas des vagabonds timides et au corps mou : c’étaient d’énormes prédateurs au sommet, pouvant s’étendre jusqu’à 20 mètres de long et écrasant leurs proies avec de puissantes morsures.
