Various fossils pertaining to the holotype of the Triassic ichthyosaur Toretocnemus (originally Leptocheirus, also Merriamia) zitteli. This image is derived from plate 23 in Merriam (1903), done by an uncredited artist. The arrangement of the individual figures has been modified from the original (most notably, figures 3 and 4 were swapped to minimize confusion).

Mounted replica of a composite skeleton of Edmontosaurus annectens on display at the University of Oxford Museum, Oxford, England. The original skeleton is compiled from disarticulated fossil bones from a bonebed of the Hell Creek Formation, exposed in the Ruth Mason Quarry in Harding County, South Dakota. It is 8.5 m (28 ft.) long and the skull is almost 1 m (39 in.) in length.[1][2]

Les humains ont évolué plus vite que n’importe quel autre singe
croissance évolution crâne
Les scientifiques de l'UCL ont découvert que les crânes humains évoluaient beaucoup plus rapidement que ceux des autres singes, reflétant les forces puissantes qui conduisent la croissance de notre cerveau et l'aplatissement de notre visage. En comparant des modèles 3D de crânes de singes, ils ont montré que les humains changeaient environ deux fois plus que prévu. Les résultats suggèrent que des facteurs cognitifs et sociaux, et pas seulement l’intelligence, ont influencé notre évolution.
