This sets a new record for the smallest found dinosaur egg. The previous record for the smallest non-avian dinosaur egg, according to Guinness World Records , measures 45-by-20 millimeters (about ...
The Yuanyanglong fossil material, was discovered in 2021 in sediments of the Miaogou Formation (Maortu locality) in the Gobi Desert of Chilantai, Inner Mongolia, China.Two incomplete skeletons were found in association on the same block, which are assumed to represent the same species based on comparable anatomy and body size.
A study on the evolutionary relationships of ornithischian dinosaurs, based on a modified version of the dataset from the study of Müller & Garcia (2020), [230] is published by Norman et al. (2022), who recover silesaurids as an evolutionary grade of early ornithischian dinosaurs, reintroduce the name Prionodontia for the least inclusive clade ...
The discovery of an ornithischian dinosaur in this context is notable; it likely happened to be washed into the lake after its death. [ 2 ] After being announced in December 2024 as a non-finalized preprint , Yao et al. (2025) described Archaeocursor asiaticus as a new genus and species of early ornithischians based on this fossil specimen.
In 2024, Ning et al. described Baiyinosaurus baojiensis as a new genus and species of stegosaurian dinosaurs based on these fossil remains. The generic name , Baiyinosaurus , combines a reference to Baiyin—the city where the holotype was found—with with the Greek " σαῦρος " (" sauros "), meaning "reptile".
Lingwulong is a genus of dicraeosaurid sauropod dinosaur from the Middle Jurassic of what is now Lingwu, Yinchuan, Ningxia, China. The type and only species is L. shenqi, known from several partial skeletons. It is the earliest-aged neosauropod ever discovered, as well as the only definite diplodocoid from east Asia. [1]
DNA analysis found the new species had between 2.5% and about 13% genetic divergence from other bush frogs. The research team included Lingyun Du, Yuhan Xu, Shuo Liu and Guohua Yu.
Zhenyuanlong was one of eighteen dinosaur taxa from 2015 to be described in open access or free-to-read journals. [3] The holotype, JPM-0008, was found in the Sihedang locality of Jianchang County of northeastern China's Yixian Formation, which dates from the Aptian age of the Early Cretaceous (125–113 million years ago). The holotype ...
