Rhinos’ evolutionary relationships became a little clearer with the sequencing of the oldest proteins yet. Researchers have described proteins that they say are among the most ancient ever sequenced.

The study of palaeontology has long provided a window into the dynamic evolutionary history of dinosaurs and their avian descendants. Recent research has uncovered intricate details regarding the ...

The mystery behind the origins of the dinosaurs may have been given a new twist, with a modeling study suggesting they may have evolved in what is today equatorial Africa and South America. This would ...

The extinction of the largest dinosaurs to walk the Earth may have played a critical role in creating an environment that helped fruits evolve, thereby indirectly shaping the evolution of our own ...

A newly identified dinosaur species, Maleriraptor kuttyi, is reshaping what we know about the survival and evolution of predatory dinosaurs. The small, meat-eating dinosaur, which lived roughly 220 ...

On03, Chinese paleontologists discovered the fossil of a dinosaur species with four wings. The 130-million-year-old fossil ...

(CNN) — The earliest dinosaurs were unremarkable, bit players on a supercontinent crowded with other ancient reptiles when they first evolved around 230 million years ago. Fast-forward 30 million ...

The remains of the earliest dinosaurs may lie undiscovered in the Amazon and other equatorial regions of South America and Africa, suggests a new study led by UCL (University College London) ...

A duo of sauropodomorphs; one munching on the newly evolved plants in a wet Early Jurassic environment whilst the other is looking up as if there was something hiding in the vegetation. Illustration: ...

Researchers have described proteins that they say are among the most ancient ever sequenced. Two teams, which analysed molecules from extinct relatives of rhinos and other large mammals, have pushed ...
