Reconstruction of anteroposterior movement of the mandible during the chewing stroke in Infernogallus jamesi. Three-dimensional models of the skull and mandible showing potential mandible positions based on contact of the articular and quadrate, and resulting adductor musculature orientations. From rest (a), contraction of the m. depressor mandibulae would open the mouth (b). Contraction of the the mm. pterygoideus in this position would move the mandible forwards (c). This anterior movement would increase the anteroposterior orientations of the temporal adductor musculature (see also Supplementary Fig. 7a–c). Contraction of the temporal adductor muscles in this position would bring the mandible upwards and backwards (c). This movement would enable manipulation and compression of foods between the triturating features of the dentary and the maxillovomeral process of the palate (d). Blue arrows and text indicate inferred motions, black text indicates muscle groups contracting. M depressor mandibulae could not be reconstructed based on the areas exposed in ROM VP 65050, but it has deeply conserved attachments on the posterior process of the squamosal and retroarticular process of the mandible in archosaurs 5 . In positions (c, d), the m depressor mandibulae would rest medial to the quadratojugal.

Un crâne fossilisé d'Edmontosaure avec une dent de tyrannosaure encore incrustée dans son visage a fourni aux scientifiques de rares preuves d'une rencontre dramatique entre prédateur et proie. La découverte suggère que le carnivore géant a prononcé une morsure face-à-face incroyablement puissante, offrant de nouveaux indices sur la façon dont le tyrannosaure chassait.

Antarctique crâne
Les scientifiques ont examiné l'intérieur du crâne d'un poisson de l'Antarctique vieux de 380 millions d'années, étroitement apparenté aux premiers animaux à avoir marché sur terre, révélant des indices surprenants sur la façon dont la vie a commencé à sortir de l'eau. Grâce à l’imagerie neutronique avancée, les chercheurs ont découvert que Koharalepis jarviki possédait des caractéristiques adaptées pour vivre près de la surface de l’eau, notamment des ouvertures dans son crâne qui auraient pu l’aider à avaler de l’air et un organe sensible à la lumière lié aux rythmes jour-nuit.
