Researchers have uncovered a "dinosaur highway" after hundreds of giant prehistoric footprints dating back 166 million years were found in an English quarry. Discovered at the Dewars Farm Quarry ...
A nearly complete and intact dinosaur skeleton has been excavated in France. The specimen is a Titanosaur, one of the largest dinosaurs of its time. 70 million-year-old giant dinosaur skeleton ...
In the study, they found that this dinosaur was not T. rex after all but a never-before-seen sister species, Tyrannosaurus mcraeensis. This species was older and perhaps even larger than the T. rex.
The species is known mainly from a single skull, plus a few extremely thick skull roofs (at 22 cm or 9 in thick). More complete fossils would come to be found in the following years. Pachycephalosaurus was among the last species of non-avian dinosaurs on Earth before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
In 2005, the paleontologist Cristiano Dal Sasso and colleagues described new skull material (a snout) of Spinosaurus (the original fossils of which were also destroyed during World War II), and concluded this dinosaur would have been 16 to 18 m (52 to 59 ft) long with a weight 7 to 9 t (7.7 to 9.9 short tons), exceeding the maximum size of all ...
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 ...
The holotype of S. angustirostris is a skull and postcrania, so the cranium of the species is well-described. Bell et al. re-evaluated the entire species in a 2011 publication with Acta Palaeontologica Polonica. Their description found the skull to be generalized among hadrosaurines, and are much larger than any skulls of S. osborni. The most ...
