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.…

The cool animation made by @errequad for his master research !

Another example of how museum collections modern imaging techniques can reveal spectacular hidden fossils. 🦖

This work resulted from the Erasmus and Master Thesis project of @errequad , carried out between Bologna University and University of Tübingen. It has been a pleasure to see this taking shape as a co-advisor :) Enjoy!

The surprise? Neck vertebrae were fusing earlier than those further back in the spine — challenging the traditional “tail-to-head” model of vertebral fusion in dinosaurs.

INCREDIBLE WORK! Congratulations to the authors 👏🏽 Also some interesting implications for Iberian ornithopods... Cc: @PalaeoFil
New paper out today in @ThePalAss : onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… Co-led with @PalaeoFil (coauthors Federico Fanti & Miguel Moreno-Azanza). Using the largest data matrix yet, we name a new sail-backed clade (Ouranosauria) & reassess Iguanodon taxonomy. 🎨 Artwork by Davide Bonadonna

🦖 Plot twist: iguanodonts didn’t start in the Cretaceous. Our study pushes their origin back to the Early–Middle Jurassic (~180 Ma) — revealing a long hidden history. 🔥 Plus: a new clade, Ouranosauria (incl. Ouranosaurus-like forms)🌍 Global by the Late Jurassic.@AAlechiarenza

8/ And to the @MapasLab that welcomed me, plus all collaborators, institutions, and collections that made this work possible.

9/ 🦕 There’s still a lot to uncover… but the story of iguanodonts just got much deeper.
