Potential Lagerstätte-type beds in the Upper Cretaceous of the Salento Peninsula (Apulia,
Italy)


Where the discovery of a rather complete pythonomorph suggests that fossil beds around there may provide highly complete Maastrichtian fossils.

Paromomyids: early primates who like the cold?

A study on paromomyid "Pleasiadapiformes" (read: stem-primates) and their diversity throught North America. It turns out to have been very high, and some occur in rather high latitudes.

Larger than Thoracosaurus?

Quite interested in the new Caenagnathid...

It's described as a "large-bodied taxon similar in size to the recently described, coeval taxon Anzu wyliei", so it seems not.

(Unfortunately)
