The study of palaeontology has long provided a window into the dynamic evolutionary history of dinosaurs and their avian descendants. Recent research has uncovered intricate details regarding the ...
Rhinos’ evolutionary relationships became a little clearer with the sequencing of the oldest proteins yet. Researchers have described proteins that they say are among the most ancient ever sequenced.
The mystery behind the origins of the dinosaurs may have been given a new twist, with a modeling study suggesting they may have evolved in what is today equatorial Africa and South America. This would ...
The story of how dinosaurs came to dominate Earth has fascinated scientists and the public for generations. But what if we’ve been looking in the wrong places for their earliest ancestors? A ...
Where are all the east coast dinosaurs? Where are all the east coast dinosaurs? Why don’t we find famous species like Triceratops in Central Park? Turns out, evolution and geology came together to ...
The extinction of the largest dinosaurs to walk the Earth may have played a critical role in creating an environment that helped fruits evolve, thereby indirectly shaping the evolution of our own ...
The remains of the earliest dinosaurs may lie undiscovered in the Amazon and other equatorial regions of South America and Africa, suggests a new study led by UCL (University College London) ...
A newly identified dinosaur species, Maleriraptor kuttyi, is reshaping what we know about the survival and evolution of predatory dinosaurs. The small, meat-eating dinosaur, which lived roughly 220 ...
On03, Chinese paleontologists discovered the fossil of a dinosaur species with four wings. The 130-million-year-old fossil ...
Chris Doughty, an associate professor in NAU's informatics department, was writing a paper for a conference and had the idea to test a theory about sauropods, forests and fruit. Doughty created a ...
Researchers have described proteins that they say are among the most ancient ever sequenced. Two teams, which analysed molecules from extinct relatives of rhinos and other large mammals, have pushed ...
