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."

Un fossile de reptile vieux de 240 millions d'années révèle un chapitre perdu avant les dinosaures et les crocodiles
prédateur Brésil Trias fossile Dinosauria évolution autres reptiles
Un reptile vieux de 240 millions d'années découvert au Brésil révèle à quoi ressemblait l'évolution juste avant l'avènement des dinosaures et des crocodiles. Le petit prédateur avait des pattes inhabituellement positionnées qui lui permettaient peut-être de se déplacer plus efficacement que de nombreux reptiles antérieurs. Ses proches parents étaient auparavant connus principalement sur d’autres continents, ce qui suggère que ces animaux anciens se sont répandus beaucoup plus loin dans le monde du Trias que les scientifiques ne le pensaient.

vertèbre musée fossile
Plusieurs énormes vertèbres de Megalodon, qui auraient été détruites en 1989, ont été retrouvées inaperçues sur une étagère de musée. Leur analyse renforce la preuve que le requin géant pourrait dépasser 24 mètres (79 pieds) de longueur et vivre près d'un siècle. Les chercheurs estiment également que ses nouveau-nés auraient pu mesurer une taille étonnante de 3,6 mètres (12 pieds).

Canada fossile découverte évolution
Un site fossilifère spectaculaire au Canada contient des créatures vieilles de 567 millions d'années qui pourraient représenter certains des premiers animaux à se déplacer, à se reproduire sexuellement et à développer des plans corporels reconnaissables. La découverte repousse les étapes clés de l’évolution jusqu’à 10 millions d’années et suggère qu’une vie animale complexe pourrait avoir prospéré pour la première fois dans les profondeurs de l’océan.
