Qunkasaura is a titanosaurian sauropod dinosaur that lived approximately 75 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous of what is now Spain. Specifically, it is a saltasaurid titanosaur, and its discovery marks the first instance of two distinct lineages of this group present in the same locality. In the Late Cretaceous, Europe was a large archipelago, and the coexistence of these differing lineages indicates that saltasaurids arrived in the Iberian Peninsula much later than other groups of dinosaurs.

Jiangxititan a titanosaurian sauropod from the Late Cretaceous of China. Typical for a sauropod, it had a long neck and stood on four pillar-like legs to support its massive body. Jiangxititan is a member of the Lognkosauria, which include some of the largest dinosaurs known, and is one of the few from mainland Asia. The discovery of Jiangxititan demonstrates the presence of both early-diverging and late-diverging titanosauriform sauropods in that area during the Late Cretaceous.

Skeletal reconstruction of Ahshislepelta minor, a small ankylosaur from the Late Cretaceous Kirtland Formation of New Mexico. While originally recovered as an ankylosaurid related to Gastonia, later analyses favored a nodosaurid position which this is based on. Based on the holotype SMP VP-1930, consisting of fragmentary shoulder, forelimb, and vertebral elements as well as several osteoderms. Unknown material filled in using Niobrarasaurus, Pawpawsaurus, Silvisaurus, Sauropelta, and Borealopelta. Total length is approximately 4.9 m through the centra.
Notes: Osteoderm placement somewhat speculative, not all osteoderms and vertebral fragments are figured.

États-Unis Crétacé Dinosauria Nanotyrannus
 Cette semaine, nous allons découvrir un dinosaure dont l'identité a fait l'objet de nombreux débats pendant des décennies.  Découvrez Nanotyrannus ! Nanotyrannus était un dinosaure carnivore qui vivait dans ce qui est aujourd'hui le Montana aux États-Unis au cours de la dernière période du Crétacé, il y a entre 67 et 66 millions d'années.  Du museau à la queue, il mesurait entre 17 et 20 pieds (6,2 mètres) de long à l’état adulte. Le nom du genre se traduit par « petit tyran nain » car on pensait à l'origine qu'il s'agissait d'un proche parent.
