(A) Dorsal view of the originally upside down remains recovered from north of the town of Fort McMurray, Alberta. The head and most of the neck were lost when intercepted by a grader during road construction. The right flipper was lost sometime in the Early Cretaceous prior to the final burial of the body. (B) The pelvic and abdominal regions of TMP2012.50.1 showing gastroliths (black arrows) within the body cavity that settled between the ribs of the inverted carcass and hint at a more substantial collection that is hidden inside the body cavity.

Cette petite griffe dans un fossile vieux de 500 millions d'années vient de réécrire l'origine des araignées
griffe Cambrien fossile spécimen
Ce qui a commencé comme un nettoyage de routine des fossiles s'est transformé en une surprise scientifique majeure lorsque des chercheurs ont découvert une petite griffe dans un spécimen vieux de 500 millions d'années, là où aucune griffe ne devrait exister. Ce détail a révélé Megachelicerax cousteaui, le plus ancien parent connu des araignées, repoussant les origines de ce groupe de 20 millions d'années. Le fossile montre que les principales caractéristiques des araignées et des limules modernes étaient déjà apparues lors de l'explosion cambrienne.

Haolong était un dinosaure herbivore qui vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui le Liaoning, en Chine, au début du Crétacé, il y a environ 112,5 millions d'années.  Le seul spécimen enregistré mesure environ 8 pieds (2,45 m) du bec à la queue, mais il était juvénile lorsqu'il est mort, l'espèce a donc probablement grandi.  Le nom du genre se traduit du chinois par "S

Le Tyrannosaurus rex a peut-être mis beaucoup plus de temps à grandir que les scientifiques ne le pensaient autrefois. En analysant les anneaux de croissance des os fossilisés des pattes de 17 spécimens de tyrannosaures et en utilisant de nouvelles méthodes statistiques, les chercheurs ont découvert que le célèbre prédateur avait probablement mis environ 40 ans pour atteindre sa taille maximale, soit environ huit tonnes, au lieu des 25 ans précédemment estimés.

Les scientifiques ont confirmé que Nanotyrannus était une espèce mature et non un jeune T. rex. Un examen microscopique de son os hyoïde a fourni la preuve clé, correspondant aux signaux de croissance observés dans les spécimens connus de T. rex. Cette découverte suggère un écosystème de tyrannosaures plus riche et plus compétitif qu’on ne le pensait auparavant. Il montre également comment les fossiles de musée et les analyses de pointe peuvent réécrire l’histoire préhistorique.
