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.

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 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!

Giant toothed platypus, Obdurodon insignis, receives new late Oligocene material from the Pinpa Local Fauna at Billeroo Creek, South Australia. AU fossils pre-Pliocene are very rare, only coming from this species, so this adds even more!

New rhynchosaur is named Isodapedon! This pig-lizard is from the beginning of the Late Triassic of southern Brazil. It differs from ones it lived near/time by the shape of its jaw, but was similar to ones found in scotland & Argentina.
