I am ecstatic to share the first dinosaur species I describe so far: Hesperonyx martinhotomasorum (reconstruction by Victor Carvalho ). This guy is a new small sized iguanodontian from the Upper Jurassic of Portugal. Here's the link: tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

New paper out: Nanotyrannus is a different species, not a juvenile T. rex. Growth record of the throat bone in the original skull of Nanotyrannus shows this is a grown-up individual, rather than a growing teenager, that lived alongside the tyrant lizard. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

Whew. A little thing happened today. Honored to have done this work with the outstanding @JGN_Paleo. I was a skeptic when I stepped into this, but no denying it #Nanotyrannus is valid. @JGN_Paleo and I left no stone unturned. And by the way, there are juvi T. rex, stay tuned...

🧠🐊New paper on dwarf Jurassic crocodylomorphs from Portugal! We reconstructed the brain and inner ear of a 150 Ma dwarf crocodylomorph, the first palaeoneuroanatomical study ever done on Atoposauridae. Here is the link to the article: fr.pensoft.net/article/167846/

5/ From a paleobiogeographic perspective, this is one of the earliest records of dyrosaurid dispersal along the South Atlantic coast — an important puzzle piece for understanding marine reptile evolution in Gondwana.

4/ This fits into a bigger picture: While most marine reptiles went extinct at the K–Pg boundary, dyrosaurids survived and diversified — especially in Africa. Our find shows that this diversification likely started before the extinction event.

🌍 What structures life on Earth? In the 1980s, Brown and Maurer laid the foundations of macroecology with a simple, powerful idea: space, time… and FOOD. Where food is, how it's distributed, and who gets access to it.

New paper by my friend Sofia Patrocínio: "The oldest definitive docodontan from central East Greenland sheds light on the origin of the clade" It was a pleasure to illustrate the new taxon, Nujalikodon cassiopeiae, for this paper! LINK: doi.org/10.1002/spp2.7…
