Reconstruction of Tuebingosaurus maierfritzorum gen. et sp. nov. as a quadruped dinosaur, using the outline of Riojasaurus as a base ‒ next to the silhouette of Friedrich von Huene. The drawing of the bones is based on and modified from the original illustrations of specimen “GPIT IV” in von Huene (1932, pl. 38) that have been replicated in the literature. The right fibula is marked in grey as it was found nearby with similar measurements to the left fibula and has been assumed to be part of the same individual.

Achelousaurus horneri skull, collected in Glacier County, Montana, at the Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana.
The Ceratopsidae are those dinosaurs with head frills.  There are three large subgroups of Ceratopsidae: Centrosaurinae, Ceratopsinae, and Chasmosaurinae. The Triceratopsini are a "tribe" of the Chasmosaurinae -- a genus so vast that it gets the special name "tribe".  The Pachyrhinosaurini are a "tribe" within the Centrosaurinae.

Achelousaurus is a genus within the Pachyrhinosaurini.  So far, only three skulls and some limited skeletal remains have been collected anywhere in the world -- and all of them in Montana.  Their bony frills are quite similar to the Styracosaurus albertensis, although their other skull features (such as big bony bosses on the nose and behind the eyes) are not.

Reconstructed skull of Jaxartosaurus aralensis Riabinin, 1937. Only a posterior portion of the skull, as well as a surangular is known, with the rest of the skull being based mostly upon File:Aralosaurus skull.png. Jaxartosaurus is currently classified as a basal lambeosaurine, more derived than Aralosaurini, but more primitive than Parasaurolophini and Lambeosaurini. It might be more derived than Tsintaosaurini (Godefroit et al., 2004). References:

Faites place (beaucoup d'espace... sauvegardez davantage... continuez... continuez... backbackbackback) pour le puissant Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus ! Le Spinosaurus était un dinosaure carnivore qui vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui l'Afrique, notamment en Égypte, au Maroc et au Niger, à la fin du Crétacé, il y a environ 97 à 95 millions d'années.  C'était un animal massif, le plus gros individu connu mesurant peut-être 49 pieds (environ 15 m) de long du museau à la queue à l'âge adulte, ce qui en fait le plus long dinosaure carnivore connu de la science.  La génération

Chine juvénile Dinosauria Iguanodontia
Un dinosaure vieux de 125 millions d’années vient de réécrire ce que nous pensions savoir sur la vie préhistorique. Des scientifiques chinois ont découvert un iguanodontien juvénile exceptionnellement préservé, avec une peau fossilisée si détaillée que les cellules individuelles sont encore visibles. Plus étonnant encore, le dinosaure herbivore était couvert de pointes creuses ressemblant à des porcs-épics, des structures jamais documentées auparavant chez aucun dinosaure.

(becs de canard) Les hadrosaures lambiosaurines avaient généralement une crête creuse sur la tête et un bec plus étroit que les autres types d'hadrosaures.  Il était étroitement lié à d'autres hadrosaures lambiosaurines tels que Parasaurolophus, Hypacrosaurus, Lambeosaurus et Velafrons.  Il vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui l'Alberta, au Canada,

Ses ossements ont été découverts dans le Colorado, aux États-Unis, au Portugal et peut-être en Allemagne (l'Europe et l'Amérique du Nord n'étaient pas aussi éloignées à l'époque, rappelez-vous, donc beaucoup de dinosaures présents sur chacun d'eux partageaient des ancêtres récents).  Du nez à la queue, il mesurait jusqu'à 36 pieds (environ 11 m) et aurait été parmi les plus grands,

Un petit dinosaure nouvellement identifié, Foskeia pelendonum, bouleverse les idées reçues de longue date sur l'évolution des dinosaures herbivores. Même si les adultes adultes étaient remarquablement petits et légers, leur anatomie était tout sauf simple : elles présentaient un crâne bizarre et hautement spécialisé et des traits évolutifs inattendus. Des études osseuses détaillées montrent que ces dinosaures ont mûri rapidement avec un métabolisme semblable à celui des oiseaux ou des mammifères, tandis que leurs dents et leur posture suggèrent une vie rapide et agile dans des forêts denses.
