Sarcosaurus diagram of known material: reconstruction based on basal Ceratosaurs (such as Berberosaurus and Saltriovenator). The Skull was made to look more generic and less like more derived Ceratosaurs such as Ceratosaurus. "Liassaurus", referred to "cf. Sarcosaurus woodi" and is smaller than the holotype: material in light grey is preserved, but to what extent is uncertain as it is not figured.

About Isisaurus–

Isisaurus colberti (=Titanosaurus colberti) was a species of Titanosaurian Sauropod Dinosaur from the Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian) age in the Indian Subcontinent. Isisaurus lived sympatrically with another Titanosaurian Sauropod Jainosaurus. It also lived alongside Theropods like Rajasaurus, Rahiolisaurus, Indosuchus etc. Remains of Isisaurus come from the Lameta formation of Central India.

Megapnosaurus is a coelophysid theropod dinosaur from the Early Jurassic Period of Africa. It was a lightly built bipedal carnivore that grew to just over 2 m long and 13 kg in body mass. Its close relation to Coelophysis has caused some confusion in classifying the genus - it had a slender build and curved S-shaped neck, but was more robust. Comparisons between the scleral rings of Megapnosaurus and modern birds and reptiles indicate that it may have been nocturnal.

Les bébés dinosaures étaient l'épine dorsale de la chaîne alimentaire jurassique
chasse prédateur proie Jurassique fossile Dinosauria
Bien qu’ils soient devenus les plus gros animaux ayant jamais marché sur terre, les sauropodes ont commencé leur vie petits, exposés et seuls. Les preuves fossiles suggèrent que leurs bébés étaient fréquemment mangés par de multiples prédateurs, ce qui en faisait un élément clé de la chaîne alimentaire jurassique. Cet approvisionnement constant en proies faciles peut expliquer pourquoi les premiers prédateurs ont prospéré sans avoir besoin d’adaptations extrêmes en matière de chasse. Les résultats offrent un rare aperçu du fonctionnement réel des écosystèmes de dinosaures.

Cette application d'IA peut déterminer quel dinosaure a laissé une empreinte
fossile empreintes Dinosauria oiseau datation découverte
Les empreintes de dinosaures ont toujours été mystérieuses, mais une nouvelle application d'IA perce leurs secrets. DinoTracker analyse les photos de traces de fossiles et prédit quel dinosaure les a créées, avec une précision rivalisant avec celle des experts humains. En cours de route, il a découvert des empreintes de pas qui ressemblent étonnamment à celles d'un oiseau, remontant à plus de 200 millions d'années. Cette découverte pourrait repousser l’origine des oiseaux bien plus loin dans la préhistoire.

Ajkaceratops était un petit dinosaure herbivore qui vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui la Hongrie à la fin du Crétacé, il y a environ 85 millions d'années.  Du bec à la queue, il mesurait probablement un peu plus de 1 m de long.  Le nom du genre se traduit par « Ajka Horned Face », faisant référence à la ville de Hongrie près de l'endroit où ses fossiles ont été trouvés.  Aquarelle d'Ajkaceratops par C

os bassin Roumanie fossile Dinosauria Titanosauria squelette
Des scientifiques explorant le bassin de Hațeg en Roumanie ont découvert l’un des sites de fossiles de dinosaures les plus denses jamais découverts, avec des os presque les uns sur les autres. Le site K2 préserve des milliers de vestiges d’un lac préhistorique alimenté en crue qui agissait comme un piège osseux naturel il y a 72 millions d’années. Aux côtés de dinosaures locaux communs, les chercheurs ont découvert les premiers squelettes de titanosaures bien conservés jamais découverts dans la région. Le site révèle comment les anciens écosystèmes européens de dinosaures se sont formés et ont évolué au cours de cette période.
