Mounted replica of a composite skeleton of Edmontosaurus annectens on display at the University of Oxford Museum, Oxford, England. The original skeleton is compiled from disarticulated fossil bones from a bonebed of the Hell Creek Formation, exposed in the Ruth Mason Quarry in Harding County, South Dakota. It is 8.5 m (28 ft.) long and the skull is almost 1 m (39 in.) in length.[1][2]

Un nouveau dinosaure Unenlagiid de Patagonie (Argentine)
Argentine Japon Crétacé Crétacé supérieur fossile Dinosauria Kank Unenlagiidae découverte formation nouvelle espèce
Une équipe de scientifiques argentins et japonais a décrit une nouvelle espèce de dinosaure unenlagiidé du sud de la Patagonie. Nommé Kank australis, ce petit dinosaure théropode vivait il y a environ 70 millions d'années à la fin du Crétacé. Les restes fossiles ont été découverts dans la formation Chorrillo de la province de Santa Cruz, en Argentine. La découverte aide mieux les paléontologues

Des scientifiques viennent de découvrir que l’Afrique est plus proche de l’éclatement que nous le pensions
fossile formation
Sous le rift Turkana, en Afrique de l’Est, les scientifiques ont découvert que la croûte s’amincit jusqu’à atteindre un point critique, ce qui suggère que le continent se désagrège progressivement. Ce processus de « rétrécissement » marque un stade avancé de rifting qui pourrait éventuellement conduire à la formation d’un nouvel océan dans des millions d’années. Étonnamment, les mêmes forces géologiques qui divisent la terre peuvent également expliquer pourquoi la région détient un registre fossile si riche. Au lieu d'être le berceau de l'humanité, Turkana pourrait bien être simplement le lieu où

Maroc fossile découverte formation
Une étrange formation rocheuse ridée au Maroc a amené les scientifiques à repenser l'endroit où pourraient vivre d'anciens microbes. Au lieu d’eaux peu profondes et ensoleillées, ces microbes pourraient avoir prospéré dans les profondeurs de l’océan, alimentés par les produits chimiques libérés par les glissements de terrain sous-marins. La découverte suggère que les environnements sombres et riches en nutriments ont abrité des écosystèmes prospères beaucoup plus tôt que prévu. Cela soulève également la possibilité que de nombreux fossiles similaires aient été négligés ou mal interprétés.
