Xu & Barrett (2025) review the research on the evolutionary history of feathers from the preceding years. [71] Brown et al. (2025) describe a cervical vertebra of a juvenile specimen of Cryodrakon boreas from the Dinosaur Park Formation (Alberta, Canada), preserved with a bite mark interpreted as likely produced by a crocodilian. [72]
Reijenga & Close (2025) study the fossil record of Phanerozoic marine animals, and argue that purported evidence of a relationship between the duration of studied clades and their rates of origination and extinction can be explained by incomplete fossil sampling. [46] Maletz et al. (2025) revise Paleozoic fossils with similarities to feathers ...
Fossil material of a giant titanosaur sauropod, distinct from Andesaurus and probably exceeding Patagotitan in size, is described from the Cenomanian Candeleros Formation by Otero et al. (2021). [241] Revision of known fossil material of Pellegrinisaurus powelli and a study on the skeletal anatomy, bone histology and phylogenetic relationships ...
Fossils found in China may add a new branch to the human family tree. ... 2025 at 11:00 AM. Editor’s note: A version of this story appeared in CNN’s Wonder Theory science newsletter.
Doughty et al. (2025) use a mechanistic model to study the relationship between seed size of flowering plants, their light environment and the size of animals in their environment, and predict a rapid increase of seed size during the Paleocene that eventually plateaued or declined, likely as a result of the appearance of large herbivores that opened the understory, reducing the competitive ...
Rock and dust samples retrieved by NASA from the asteroid Bennu exhibit some of the chemical building blocks of life, according to research that provides some of the best evidence to date that ...
This list of fossil molluscs described in 2025 is a list of new taxa of fossil molluscs that were described during the year 2025, as well as other significant discoveries and events related to molluscan paleontology that occurred in 2025.
Han et al. (2022) establish a high-resolution geochronological framework for the fossil-rich Late Cretaceous sedimentary sequence in the Shanyang Basin (China), and interpret the fossil material from the studied specimens as indicative of sustained low dinosaur biodiversity in the studied area between ~68.2 and ~66.4 million years ago, and of a ...
