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:

Parasaurolophus : Bête de la semaine
crête Crétacé Crétacé supérieur spécimen Canardia Dinosauria Parasaurolophus
Cette semaine, nous allons nous intéresser à un dinosaure à bec de canard très populaire.  Dites bonjour à Parasaurolophus !  Le parasaurolophus était un herbivore qui vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui l'Amérique du Nord à la fin du Crétacé, il y a environ 77 à 73 millions d'années.  Le parasaurolophus mesurait environ 9,1 mètres de long du bec à la queue, mais certains spécimens incomplets montrent qu'ils étaient un peu plus grands.  Parasaurolophus est surtout connu pour sa longue crête incurvée qui s'est développée à l'arrière de sa tête, givi

fossile Dinosauria
Les chercheurs ont découvert que les coquilles d’œufs fossilisées de dinosaures contiennent une horloge naturelle qui peut révéler l’époque où vivaient les dinosaures. La technique fournit des âges étonnamment précis et pourrait révolutionner la façon dont les sites fossilifères du monde entier sont datés.

Des monstres marins géants vivaient dans les rivières à la fin de l'ère des dinosaures
dent alimentation prédateur Dinosauria Mosasaurus isotope
Les mosasaures géants, autrefois considérés comme des prédateurs strictement océaniques, ont peut-être passé leur dernier chapitre à rôder dans les rivières d'eau douce aux côtés de dinosaures et de crocodiles. Une dent massive trouvée dans le Dakota du Nord, analysée à l'aide de techniques isotopiques chimiques, révèle que certains mosasaures se sont adaptés aux systèmes fluviaux à mesure que les mers se rafraîchissaient progressivement vers la fin de l'ère des dinosaures. Ces énormes reptiles, peut-être aussi longs qu'un bus, semblent avoir chassé près de la surface, se nourrissant peut-être même de dinosaures noyés.

crête écaille film Dinosauria Edmontosaurus
Les scientifiques ont reconstitué le profil le plus complet et le plus réaliste d’Edmontosaurus annectens grâce à un processus de préservation extraordinaire appelé modèle d’argile, dans lequel un mince film d’argile a capturé la peau, les écailles, les pointes et même les sabots du dinosaure en trois dimensions. En combinant des «momies» récemment fouillées, une imagerie avancée et une reconstruction artistique, les chercheurs ont révélé une haute crête, une seule rangée de pointes de queue, de délicates écailles ressemblant à des cailloux et, ce qui est le plus remarquable, le plus ancien sabot connu.
