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:

Nanotyrannus : Bête de la semaine
États-Unis Crétacé Dinosauria Nanotyrannus
 Cette semaine, nous allons découvrir un dinosaure dont l'identité a fait l'objet de nombreux débats pendant des décennies.  Découvrez Nanotyrannus ! Nanotyrannus était un dinosaure carnivore qui vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui le Montana aux États-Unis au cours de la dernière période du Crétacé, il y a entre 67 et 66 millions d'années.  Du museau à la queue, il mesurait entre 17 et 20 pieds (6,2 mètres) de long à l’état adulte. Le nom du genre se traduit par « petit tyran nain » car on pensait à l'origine qu'il s'agissait d'un proche parent.

migration prédateur Dinosauria Khankhuuluu Tyrannosaurus découverte nouvelle espèce
Les scientifiques ont dévoilé Khankhuuluu, une nouvelle espèce de dinosaure mongol qui est antérieure et ressemble beaucoup aux premiers tyrannosaures. Avec son long museau, ses petites cornes et sa silhouette élancée, il représente une forme de transition entre les prédateurs rapides de taille moyenne et les chasseurs géants comme le T. rex. La découverte suggère également que les grands tyrannosaures ont évolué pour la première fois en Amérique du Nord à la suite d'une ancienne migration en provenance d'Asie.
