Dinosaur coloration is generally one of the unknowns in the field of paleontology, as skin pigmentation is nearly always lost during the fossilization process. However, recent studies of feathered dinosaurs and skin impressions have shown the colour of some species can be inferred through the use of melanosomes , the colour-determining pigments ...
tr This is a list of stratigraphic units from which dinosaur body fossils have been recovered. Although Dinosauria is a clade which includes modern birds, this article covers only Mesozoic stratigraphic units. Units listed are all either formation rank or higher (e.g. group).
Maybe it's the sudden, sharp contrast between the beige body and the black-and-white speckled head, sail, and tail. I suggest you use the color patterns of your previous spinosaurine illustrations. Or, to make them similar enough when displayed on a chart, use the general color schemes (but not the patterns ofc) of the baryonychines on the ...
Pachycephalosaurus (/ ˌ p æ k ɪ ˌ s ɛ f əl ə ˈ s ɔː r ə s /; [2] meaning "thick-headed lizard", from Greek pachys-/ παχύς-"thickness", kephalon/ κεφαλή "head" and sauros/ σαῦρος "lizard") [3] is a genus of pachycephalosaurid ornithischian dinosaur. The type species, P. wyomingensis, is the only known definitive species.
This newly identified dinosaur, called Lokiceratops rangiformis, was about 22 feet (6.7 meters) long, weighed around 5-1/2 tons and used a powerful beak at the front of its mouth to browse on low ...
The dinosaur lived 150 million years ago in the late Jurassic period, making it millions of years older than the terrifying Tyrannosaurus rex that roamed the Earth some 66 million to 68 million ...
There have been some discoveries of unusually well-preserved fossil dinosaur specimens which bear remnants of tissues and bodily structures.Organic tissue was previously thought to decay too quickly to enter the fossil record, unlike more mineralised bones and teeth, however, research now suggests the potential for the long-term preservation of original soft tissues over geological time, [1 ...
