Fossils of the pterosaurs Inabtanin alarabia (left) and Arambourgiania philadelphiae discovered in Jordan showcased their 3D wing structures and helped researchers determine how large they were.
Using Spinophorosaurus as an example, Vidal (2024) explains how virtual 3D models of sauropods have enabled an understanding of their biomechanics. [ 231 ] Agustí, Alcalá & Santos-Cubedo (2024) propose that sauropod gigantism was an adaptation that increased the ability of sauropods to travel great distances, necessitated by pronounced ...
Frese, McCurry & Wells (2024) describe pupae and uncased larvae of caddisflies from the Miocene McGraths Flat Lagerstätte (), including specimens with large compound eyes preserving details of the rhabdoms and corneal nanocoating and with other external and internal structures, and interpret the environment of the studied caddisflies as affected by cyclic catastrophic events.
Forte et al. (2024) study the morphology, cuticular patterns and isotope geochemistry of Permian conifer fossils from the Bletterbach plant fossil assemblage , reporting evidence of a unique geochemical composition of fossils of Majonica alpina (possibly related to adaptation to specific environmental conditions), as well as evidence of ...
