It had a wingspan of 15 feet (4.6 meters) and lived about 100 million years ago, making Haliskia a bit larger and older - by about 5 million years - than the closely related Australian pterosaur ...
Fossils discovered in Australia reveal hundreds of new species, a pollen-covered insect, parasitic larva, and fish with last meals in their stomachs.
Lacerda et al. (2024) describe new fossil material of spinosaurids (including a cervical vertebra of Sigilmassasaurus) and partial ischium of an indeterminate carcharodontosaurid from the Kem Kem Group . [167] Yun (2024) identifies convergent similarities in craniodental anatomy between spinosaurs and phytosaurs. [168]
A study on the fossils and paleosols of the Devonian Hervey Group (New South Wales, Australia) is published by Retallack (2024), who interprets his findings as indicating that Metaxygnathus lived within streams among subhumid woodlands, and argues that tetrapod limbs and necks most likely evolved in woodland streams.

Fossil material of Quaestio was discovered in Southern Australia in 2024, from the Ediacara Member at Nilpena Ediacara National Park. [1] At least four trace fossils were discovered as well, some a few centimeters behind the death-mask of the maker, and some without their maker present, showing that the animal was capable of movement, which direction it moved and its anterior and posterior ...
Koolasuchus was named in 1997 from the Aptian aged Wonthaggi Formation of Strzelecki Group in Victoria.

A jawbone was found in 1978 in a fossil site known as the Punch Bowl near the town of ...
Pictured is a lump of 66-million-year-old vomit found on the Cliffs of Stevns, a geological site on the Danish island of Zealand that is comprised of a 15 km-long fossil-rich coastal cliff.
This list of fossil fish research presented in 2025 is a list of new fossil taxa of jawless vertebrates, placoderms, cartilaginous fishes, bony fishes, and other fishes that were described during the year, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to paleoichthyology that occurred in 2025.
