A large hadrosaurid dinosaur from Presa San Antonio, Cerro del Pueblo Formation, Coahuila, Mexico [PDF]
New hadrosaurid postcranial material is reported, collected near Presa San Antonio, Parras de la Fuente municipality, Coahuila, Mexico, in a sedimentary sequence belonging to the upper Campanian of the Cerro del Pueblo Formation, in the Parras Basin. The

Abstract The Early Cretaceous is an important time of transition in Earth history, marked by a succession of oceanic anoxic events and carbon cycle perturbations that drove changes on land and in the ocean. The need for more precise geochronologic constraints in terrestrial sediments of Early Cretaceous age that record faunal and floral transitions is ...

Bentonite geochronology and tephrostratigraphy for litho- and chronostratigraphic refinement of fossiliferous Campanian strata in western North America [PDF]
Tegan Beveridge studied weathered volcanic ash horizons within Late Cretaceous rocks in western North America. New high-precision ages and geochemical data facilitated correlation of richly fossiliferous rock units across the continent.

ABSTRACT Several published censuses have noted the presence of two tyrannosaurids, Daspletosaurus sp. and Albertosaurus sarcophagus, within the Upper Cretaceous Horseshoe Canyon Formation of Alberta. Although A. sarcophagus is known from more than a dozen major discoveries in these strata, Daspletosaurus sp.

Dinosaur biogeographic structure and Mesozoic continental fragmentation: a network-based approach [PDF]
Aim: To reconstruct dinosaur macro-biogeographical patterns through the Mesozoic Era using a network-based approach. We test how continental fragmentation affected dinosaur macro-biogeographical structure and evolutionary rates.

Cranial anatomy and stratigraphy of a new specimen of the tyrannosaurine dinosaur Daspletosaurus from the Judith River Formation of Central Montana, USA [PDF]
The tyrannosaurine Daspletosaurus contains three recognized species from the Campanian of Montana and Alberta: Daspletosaurus torosus, Daspletosaurus wilsoni, and Daspletosaurus horneri. The recently named D. wilsoni has been proposed to represent a

A Review of the fossil record of turtles of the clade Baenidae [PDF]
The fossil record of the turtle clade Baenidae ranges from the Early Cretaceous (Aptian—Albian) to the Eocene. The group is present throughout North America during the Early Cretaceous, but is restricted to the western portions of the continents in the ...

Skull ecomorphology of megaherbivorous dinosaurs from the dinosaur park formation (upper campanian) of Alberta, Canada. [PDF]
Megaherbivorous dinosaur coexistence on the Late Cretaceous island continent of Laramidia has long puzzled researchers, owing to the mystery of how so many large herbivores (6-8 sympatric species, in many instances) could coexist on such a small (4-7 ...
