écaille spécimen Chaohusaurus squelette
The holotype and only known specimen of the hauffiopterygian leptonectid, Xiphodracon goldencapensis (ROM VP52596) from Golden Cap, between Charmouth and Seatown, Dorset, UK. The skeleton is exposed in ventrolateral view. The skull has been fully prepared free of matrix whereas most of the skeleton is still in matrix. The left (upper) forefin has been prepared so that it is three-dimensionally preserved and projects upwards. Scale bar represents 20 cm.

Ce dinosaure de 2 livres réécrit ce que les scientifiques savent de l'évolution
fossile Alnashetri Alvarezsaurus Dinosaurus oiseau évolution squelette
Un squelette de dinosaure presque complet découvert en Patagonie aide les scientifiques à percer le mystère des alvarezsaures, un groupe étrange de dinosaures ressemblant à des oiseaux. Le fossile d'Alnashetri cerropoliciensis révèle que ces animaux sont devenus minuscules avant de développer leurs caractéristiques spécialisées ultérieures, telles que des bras tronqués et des adaptations mangeuses de fourmis. Pesant moins de deux livres, le dinosaure est l’un des plus petits connus d’Amérique du Sud.

Royaume-Uni Jurassique fossile évolution squelette
Un ichtyosaure nouvellement identifié de la côte jurassique du Royaume-Uni est en train de réécrire une partie du manuel préhistorique. Surnommé le « dragon-épée du Dorset », ce reptile marin de trois mètres de long a vécu pendant une période d’évolution mal comprise, au cours de laquelle les principaux groupes d’ichtyosaures disparaissaient et de nouveaux apparaissaient. Son squelette magnifiquement préservé – doté d’un museau en forme de lame et d’un éventuel dernier repas – permet de déterminer le moment où cette transition dramatique s’est produite.

os bassin Roumanie fossile Dinosaurus Titanosaurus 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.
