New Oviraptorosaur specimen atop a nest (IVPP V34154) is described from Upper Cretaceous, Ganzhou, Jiangxi, southern China - contains enough info linking it to Huanansaurus & Corythoraptor - Authors lump them altogether as one species.

...and was a fraction of its size, at around 40 ft and 4 tons. It's weird size fits with all of its smaller contemporaries, possibly due to island dwarfism. It's also weird for being most closely related to South American titanosaurs.

New sauropod, Phosphatotitan, named off some vertebrae from the back, hips, tail, and some hip bones from the Maastrichtian aged Couche III bed of the Oulad Abdoun Basin, Khouribga Province, Morocco. It was related to Argentinosaurus...

Colossosaurian Titanosaur bits make it the 1st record of dinos in Tena Formation of Oriente Basin, Ecuador. Too fragmentary to name, but complete enough to get a rough phylogenetic idea of. It died in a coastal lagoon with marine incursions.

They think they are most likely all the same thing as Tarbosaurus juveniles of the same age and size as Asiatyrannus and Raptorex are known and share A LOT of traits. Sinking them means Tarbo had a HUGE geographic range (bigger than T. rex) and more like modern predators.

A new attempt at sinking Raptorex - new study finds that Asiatyrannus and Raptorex don't really have enough diagnostic non-ontogenetically related traits to be considered unique genera and share too many traits with Tarbosaurus.

Lowkirkenuinely? The conodont genus, Kirkupodus and its handful of species has been re-analyzed and its evolution explored. Fossils come from across the globe, from Europe to Australia.

New species of existing Hyaenodont genus is named Metapterodon anari based on teeth from Mid-Late Miocene Siwaliks of Pakistan. Mammal teeth are easier to diagnose as species than reptile teeth, so it's not crazy. It's crazy they have no paleoart.

New ichnotaxon (Fossil footprint "species") is named Janjuichnus procerus based on large pterosaur tracks found in Cretaceous-aged South Korean sediments most likely belonging to an Azhdarchid pterosaur.

New Macronarian sauropod from Jurassic Argentina is named Bicharracosaurus based on a pretty good spinal column and some ribs. It places among more brachiosaur-type macronarians and not the one it lived with (Tehuelchesaurus).

Medusina atava, a Permian species of Jellyfish, has been found in freshwater deposits of Permian North Africa. They were tiny little critters that floated around like a lot of undecorated jellies today - they look like moon jellies to me!
