Crâne de mosasaure d'espèce Platecarpus tympaniticus (squamates, mosasaures).
Provenance : Smoky Hill Chalk, Kansas (aux Etats-Unis).
Date : Crétacé supérieur, période du Campanien, 88 millions d'années avant notre ère.
Collections du Muséum national d'histoire naturelle de Paris (France).
Exposé à l'occasion de l'exposition "Un T-Rex à Paris" au Muséum national d'histoire naturelle de Paris (France) du 6 juin au 2 septembre 2018.

Légende du fossile dans cette exposition : "Les mosasaures ne sont pas des dinosaures mais des reptiles marins, très répandus à la fin du Crétacé. Certains genres comme Globidens et Halisaurus sont connus aussi bien aux Etats-Unis qu'au Maroc. Ces animaux étaient d'excellents nageurs, capables de traverser l'Atlantique."

A hypothetical life restoration of Ampelosaurus atacis

• Ampelosaurus is known from hundreds of fossil specimens which show most of the dinosaur's osteological details, however, there are few articulated remains or reconstructions of the material so its overall proportions and life appearance are uncertain.
• Ampelosaurus is known to have supported osteoderms, only four are currently known. The number of these osteoderms that an individual Ampelosaurus would have supported in life and their and position on the body is not currently known. It's thought that due to the rarity of titanosaur osteoderms that they would be quite sparse on the body. The position and layout of the osteoderms has been loosely based on this interpretation, which is based on the work of Vidal et al 2015. [1]

Des paléontologues canadiens affirment avoir découvert une vertèbre caudale de dinosaure dans des roches marines vieilles de 75 à 80 millions d'années sur une petite île au large de la Colombie-Britannique, fournissant ainsi la preuve la plus claire à ce jour que des ornithomimosaures ressemblant à des oiseaux parcouraient autrefois l'ancienne côte du Pacifique de l'Amérique du Nord. L'article Un fossile rare de dinosaure ressemblant à une autruche trouvé sur une île canadienne est apparu en premier sur Sci.News : Breaking Science News.

Un nouveau prédateur marin colossal nommé Tylosaurus rex a été identifié à partir de fossiles trouvés au Texas, révélant un chasseur brutal de 43 pieds de long qui régnait sur les océans anciens il y a 80 millions d'années. Cette découverte présente non seulement l'un des plus grands mosasaures jamais connus, mais bouleverse également les idées de longue date sur l'évolution de ces reptiles marins.
