New perspectives on body size and shape evolution in dinosaurs
Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 5, Page 1829-1860, October 2025.ABSTRACT Diversity in the body shapes and sizes of dinosaurs was foundational to their widespread success during the Mesozoic era. The ability to quantify body size and form reliably is therefore critical to the study of dinosaur biology and evolution.

Opalized archosaur remains from the Bulldog Shale (Aptian: Lower Cretaceous) of South Australia
Terrestrial reptile remains are very rare in the Lower Cretaceous of South Australia, but include the holotype of the small theropod Kakuru. Here, we review this taxon and other archosaur specimens collected from the Bulldog Shale (Aptian) of Andamooka ...

Osteohistology of the unusually fast‐growing theropod dinosaur Ceratosaurus
Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 3-4, Page 765-789, September/October 2025.We report the histology of multiple elements attributed to four individuals of Ceratosaurus. We find that the histology and growth models corroborate previous reports of rapid tissue growth in the genus. Abstract Ceratosaurus is a large‐bodied non‐avian theropod dinosaur known from the Upper Jurassic Morrison Formation of North America and is ...

Taxonomic notes on Megapnosaurus and 'Syntarsus' (Theropoda: Coelophysidae)
, 2022 The genus name Syntarsus Raath 1969 is preoccupied by the genus Syntarsus Fairmaire 1869. The replacement name Megapnosaurus Ivie et al. 2001 was proposed but its usage is inconsistent due to both controversy on the validity of the nomenclatural act proposing Megapnosaurus and possible synonymy between it and Coelophysis Cope 1889.

Journal of Anatomy, Volume 247, Issue 3-4, Page 790-818, September/October 2025.A combined approach of osteology and histology was used to examine the cheek regions of dinosaurs. Strong evidence was found for a soft tissue in this region connecting the zygoma to the mandible, here named the ‘exoparia’. Abstract Unlike mammals, reptiles typically lack large muscles and ligaments that connect the zygoma to the mandible.

Systematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 630-645, July 2025.We describe †Cretovelona orussopteryx n. gen. & sp. from Kachin amber. The fossil is examined with synchrotron scanning and integrated into an existing morphological data set for Orussoidea. This fossil parasitoid wasp displays a unique character combination demonstrating intermediate conditions in evolving the complex features employed in echo ...
