An exquisitely preserved young iguanodontian from the Upper Jurassic of Tanzania sheds light on skeletal fusion patterns within Archosauria

Dysalotosaurus lettowvorbecki (Ornithopoda, Dinosauria) is a small-sized dryosaurid iguanodontian known from various isolated remains collected from the Tendaguru Formation (Upper Jurassic, Tanzania)...

New paper out today in @thepalass.bsky.social : onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... Co-led with @palaeofil.bsky.social , w/ Federico Fanti & Miguel Moreno-Azanza. Using the largest data matrix yet, we name a new sail-backed clade (Ouranosauria) & reassess Iguanodon taxonomy. 🎨Davide Bonadonna

Ecstatic to share my latest published research, the last chapter of my PhD dissertation. 🦕 Iguanodontian dinosaurs may have originated earlier than we thought. 🦖We identified a new clade of 'sail backed' iguanodontians, we formally name it Ouranosauria.

Duck-billed dinosaurs are often found with gruesome, shattered, deformed tails. Did the injuries happen during mating? Maybe! A provocative new study from @fbertpaleo.bsky.social & team. My thoughts for @cnn.com edition.cnn.com/2025/11/04/s...

Mating injuries may lead scientists to identify dinosaurs’ sex | CNN

Paleontologists spotted injuries on the tails of duck-billed dinosaur fossils that might have occurred during mating.

Our controversial paper is finally out in @cp-iscience.bsky.social ! As part of my PhD dissertation at @qubelfastofficial.bsky.social in 2021, the last chapter was dedicated to a specific pathological pattern in hadrosaurid tails!

Guys, gimme time to come back home and I’ll make a series of explanatory post for our NEW DINOSAUR 😍😍

Hi all, me, @richardjbutler.bsky.social and the amazing UK-US-Moroccan team are delighted to announce that.. we have a new specimen of Spicomellus AND IT'S WAY WEIRDER AND WAY COOLER THAN WE EVER IMAGINED!!

Nice animal! Very happy to see new iguanodontian species being unveiled! Congrats to Jeremy and all the authors!

For #FossilFriday a new iguanodontian Istiorachis macarthurae from the #IsleofWight published in Papers in Palaeontology today. Many thanks to coauthors @tweetisaurus.bsky.social and Dave Martill. The final paper from my PhD!

Here we looked a little into Latitudinal Biodiversity Gradient of mammals, across the fossil record!

New day, new paper! 🦣🌍 Led by @mapaslab.bsky.social ab.bsky.social PhD student Sofía Galván and out now in Global Ecology and Biogeography in which we asked: "Could future palaeontologists detect today’s biodiversity patterns from fossils alone?" 🔗 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Here a very nice contribution I took part in, shedding light on the early eavolution of stem-mammals!

Welcome to the world, Nujalikodon cassiopeiae! This little mammaliaform from Greenland is the oldest definitive docodontan, telling us more about this important clade's origin and palaeography, and how their complex teeth evolved. (Artwork by Pedro Andrade)

Since I am new here, now I will re post some of my previously published contribution on this social media :)) 🦖 Here the latest chapter of my PhD dissertation published a couple of months ago on iguanodontian dinosaurs in the Upper Jurassic of Portugal.

Evidence of large-sized ankylopollexian dinosaurs (Ornithischia: Iguanodontia) in the Upper Jurassic of Portugal

The Upper Jurassic beds of the Lusitanian Basin in central Portugal yield diverse dinosaurian fauna, dated to the Kimmeridgian–Tithonian interval. Saurischian dinosaurs are, overall, more abundant ...
