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]

Ce serpent vieux de 100 millions d'années avait des pattes postérieures et un os perdu qui change l'évolution
os membre prédateur Argentine fossile évolution
Il y a près de 100 millions d’années, les serpents n’étaient pas les créatures élégantes et sans membres que nous connaissons aujourd’hui : ils avaient encore des pattes postérieures et même une pommette qui ont presque disparu chez les espèces modernes. Un fossile remarquablement préservé de Najash rionegrina d'Argentine a remodelé la façon dont les scientifiques pensent aux origines des serpents, suggérant que les premiers serpents étaient de grands prédateurs à la bouche large plutôt que de minuscules fouisseurs.

Des paléontologues du Brésil ont identifié un nouveau genre et une nouvelle espèce de rhynchosaure hyperodapédontique – une lignée éteinte de reptiles herbivores à bec – sur la base d'un crâne partiel et de mâchoires inférieures récupérés dans des roches du Trias. L'article Un nouveau fossile du Brésil révèle une diversité inattendue parmi les herbivores pré-dinosaures est apparu en premier sur Sci.News : Breaking Science News.

De superbes traces de dinosaures vieilles de 132 millions d’années réécrivent l’histoire
fossile empreintes Dinosauria découverte
Un mystère de longue date dans les archives fossiles de l’Afrique australe commence à être résolu. Après que des coulées de lave massives, il y a 182 millions d'années, aient semblé effacer les traces de dinosaures dans la région, les scientifiques ont maintenant découvert de nouveaux indices surprenants le long de la côte du Cap occidental. Des dizaines de traces de dinosaures, vieilles d'environ 132 millions d'années, ont été découvertes dans une petite étendue rocheuse près de Knysna, ce qui en fait les plus jeunes jamais découvertes en Afrique australe.

Des scientifiques découvrent des fossiles parfaits dans la rouille sous les terres agricoles australiennes
fossile
Sous les terres agricoles arides de la Nouvelle-Galles du Sud se trouve une fenêtre cachée sur une forêt tropicale perdue regorgeant de vie datant d'il y a 11 à 16 millions d'années. À McGraths Flat, les scientifiques ont découvert des fossiles préservés avec des détails étonnants, non pas dans des roches typiques comme le schiste ou le grès, mais dans des sédiments riches en fer que l'on croyait autrefois incapables d'une telle préservation. De minuscules particules de fer remplissaient et capturaient des cellules entières, préservant tout, des organes d'insectes aux pigments des yeux de poisson et aux délicats poils d'araignées.

Un étrange parent d'un crocodile de l'époque des dinosaures réécrit ce que les scientifiques pensaient savoir sur les anciens reptiles. Cette créature de la taille d'un caniche, appelée Sonselasuchus cedrus, semble avoir commencé sa vie en marchant à quatre pattes avant de passer à une position sur deux pattes à mesure qu'elle grandissait - une transformation inhabituelle rarement observée dans les archives fossiles.
