Late Jurassic Theropod Dinosaur Bones from the Langenberg Quarry
Late Jurassic theropod dinosaur bones from the Langenberg Quarry (Lower Saxony, Germany) provide evidence for several theropod lineages in the central European archipelago Serjoscha W. Evers1 and Oliver Wings2 1 Department of Geosciences, University of Fribourg, Fribourg, Switzerland 2 Zentralmagazin Naturwissenschaftlicher Sammlungen, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg, Halle (Saale), Germany ABSTRACT Marine limestones and marls in the Langenberg Quarry provide unique insights into a Late Jurassic island ecosystem in central Europe. The beds yield a varied assemblage of terrestrial vertebrates including extremely rare bones of theropod from theropod dinosaurs, which we describe here for the first time. All of the theropod bones belong to relatively small individuals but represent a wide taxonomic range. The material comprises an allosauroid small pedal ungual and pedal phalanx, a ceratosaurian anterior chevron, a left fibula of a megalosauroid, and a distal caudal vertebra of a tetanuran. Additionally, a small pedal phalanx III-1 and the proximal part of a small right fibula can be assigned to indeterminate theropods. The ontogenetic stages of the material are currently unknown, although the assignment of some of the bones to juvenile individuals is plausible. The finds confirm the presence of several taxa of theropod dinosaurs in the archipelago and add to our growing understanding of theropod diversity and evolution during the Late Jurassic of Europe.

The Dinosaur Field Guide Supplement
The Dinosaur Field Guide Supplement September 2010 – December 2014 By, Zachary Perry (ZoPteryx) Page 1 Disclaimer: This supplement is intended to be a companion for Gregory S. Paul’s impressive work The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs, and as such, exhibits some similarities in format, text, and taxonomy. This was done solely for reasons of aesthetics and consistency between his book and this supplement. The text and art are not necessarily reflections of the ideals and/or theories of Gregory S. Paul. The author of this supplement was limited to using information that was freely available from public sources, and so more information may be known about a given species then is written or illustrated here. Should this information become freely available, it will be included in future supplements. For genera that have been split from preexisting genera, or when new information about a genus has been discovered, only minimal text is included along with the page number of the corresponding entry in The Princeton Field Guide to Dinosaurs. Genera described solely from inadequate remains (teeth, claws, bone fragments, etc.) are not included, unless the remains are highly distinct and cannot clearly be placed into any other known genera; this includes some genera that were not included in Gregory S. Paul’s work, despite being discovered prior to its publication. All artists are given full credit for their work in the form of their last name, or lacking this, their username, below their work.

Pterosaur Integumentary Structures with Complex Feather-Like Branching
ARTICLES https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-018-0728-7 Pterosaur integumentary structures with complex feather-like branching Zixiao Yang1, Baoyu Jiang 1*, Maria E. McNamara 2, Stuart L. Kearns3, Michael Pittman 4, Thomas G. Kaye 5, Patrick J. Orr6, Xing Xu7 and Michael J. Benton 3* Pterosaurs were the first vertebrates to achieve true flapping flight, but in the absence of living representatives, many ques- tions concerning their biology and lifestyle remain unresolved. Pycnofibres—the integumentary coverings of pterosaurs—are particularly enigmatic: although many reconstructions depict fur-like coverings composed of pycnofibres, their affinities and function are not fully understood. Here, we report the preservation in two anurognathid pterosaur specimens of morpholog- ically diverse pycnofibres that show diagnostic features of feathers, including non-vaned grouped filaments and bilaterally branched filaments, hitherto considered unique to maniraptoran dinosaurs, and preserved melanosomes with diverse geom- etries. These findings could imply that feathers had deep evolutionary origins in ancestral archosaurs, or that these structures arose independently in pterosaurs. The presence of feather-like structures suggests that anurognathids, and potentially other pterosaurs, possessed a dense filamentous covering that probably functioned in thermoregulation, tactile sensing, signalling and aerodynamics. eathers are the most complex integumentary appendages in uropatagium in CAGS–Z070 (Fig. 1o,p). As reported elsewhere, vertebrates1. Most feathers in modern birds possess an axial they are parallel to subparallel and closely packed.

Cranial ontogenetic variation in early saurischians and the role of heterochrony in the diversification of predatory dinosaurs. PeerJ 4:e1589 https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.1589 Cranial ontogenetic variation in early saurischians and the role of heterochrony in the diversification of predatory dinosaurs Foth Christian, Brandon P Hedrick, Martin D Ezcurra Non-avian saurischian skulls underwent at least 165 million years of evolution and shapes varied from elongated skulls, such as in Coelophysis, to short and box-shaped skulls, such as in Camarasaurus. A number of factors have long been considered to drive skull shape, including phylogeny, dietary preferences and functional constraints. However, heterochrony is increasingly being recognized as a major factor in dinosaur evolution. In order to quantitatively analyse the impact of heterochrony on saurischian skull shape, we have analysed five ontogenetic trajectories using two-dimensional geometric PrePrints morphometrics in a phylogenetic framework. This allowed for the evaluation of how heterochrony affected overall skull shape through both ontogenetic and phylogenetic trajectories and how it impacted modular changes within the skull. Using principal component analyses and multivariate regressions, it was possible to quantify different ontogenetic trajectories in light of heterochrony. The results recovered here indicate that taxa underwent a combination of local paedomorphosis and peramorphosis within the skull along individual ontogenies and phylogenies, but that either peramorphosis or paedomorphosis dominated when the skull was considered as a whole.

The Early Origin of Feathers
Trends in Ecology & Evolution Review The Early Origin of Feathers Michael J. Benton,1,* Danielle Dhouailly,2 Baoyu Jiang,3 and Maria McNamara4 Feathers have long been regarded as the innovation that drove the success of Highlights birds. However, feathers have been reported from close dinosaurian relatives of Feathers are epidermal appendages birds, and now from ornithischian dinosaurs and pterosaurs, the cousins of dino- comprising mostly corneous β-proteins saurs. Incomplete preservation makes these reports controversial. If true, these (formerly β-keratins), and are characteris- tic of birds today. findings shift the origin of feathers back 80 million years before the origin of birds. Gene regulatory networks show the deep homology of scales, feathers, and hairs. There are close connections in terms of Hair and feathers likely evolved in the Early Triassic ancestors of mammals and genomic regulation between numerous birds, at a time when synapsids and archosaurs show independent evidence of regularly arrayed structures in the epider- mis, including denticles in sharks, dermal higher metabolic rates (erect gait and endothermy), as part of a major resetting of scales in teleost fish, epidermal scales in terrestrial ecosystems following the devastating end-Permian mass extinction. reptiles, feathers in birds, and hairs in mammals.

Sciurumimus, El Primer Megalosaurio Plumoso
TIERRA EL ARTÍCULO SE PUBLICA EN LA REVISTA ‘PNAS’ Sciurumimus, el primer megalosaurio plumoso Todavía no se conocía un ejemplar de megalosaurio emplumado, hasta que ahora un equipo alemán ha analizado los restos fósiles de un ejemplar, llamado Sciurumimus, que vivió durante el Jurásico Superior, y que, probablemente, poseyó protoplumas muy sencillas, como finos pelos. El hallazgo sugiere que todos los dinosaurios pudieron tener plumaje. SINC 2/7/2012 21:01 CEST El dinosaurio conocido como Sciurumimus por el investigador principal. Imagen: Oliver Rauhut. El ejemplar vivió durante el Jurásico Superior Lo han bautizado como Sciurumimus por su cola espesa, en honor a las ardillas del género Sciurus. Sus restos fósiles muestran que pudo estar cubierto de plumas filamentadas, parecidas a pelillos. Este joven dinosaurio es el primer caso de megalosaurio emplumado que se ha descrito y que no está relacionado estrechamente con las aves. El ejemplar vivió en el Jurásico Superior, hace entre 154 y 135 millones de años, se descubrió en una cantera del pueblo alemán de Painten y se expone en el museo municipal de Bürgermeister Müller, en la región de Baviera (Alemania). TIERRA Los restos fósiles de pluma en este animal contribuyen a “llenar un vacío en el conocimiento de la evolución temprana de uno de los grupos de dinosaurios depredadores más importantes”, dice a SINC Oliver Rauhut, paleontólogo de la Universidad Ludwig Maximilian de Múnich, afiliado a la Colección Estatal de Paleontología y Geología de Baviera. Según ha publicado Rauhut y su equipo de investigadores alemanes en Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), el buen estado de conservación del fósil indica que tenía una calavera grande y las patas traseras cortas.

Phylogenetic relationships of the Cretaceous Gondwanan theropods Megaraptor and Australovenator: the evidence afforded by their manual anatomy. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 74: 49–61. General comparisons of the manual elements of megaraptorid theropods are conducted with the aim to enlarge the morphological dataset of phylogenetically useful features within Tetanurae. Distinctive features of Megaraptor are concentrated along the medial side of the manus, with metacarpal I and its corresponding digit being considerably elongated. Manual ungual of digit I is characteristically enlarged in megaraptorids, but it is also transversely compressed resulting in a sharp ventral edge. We recognize two derived characters shared by megaraptorans and coelurosaurs (i.e., proximal end of metacarpal I without a deep and wide groove continuous with the semilunar carpal, and metacarpals I and II long and slender), and one derived trait similar to derived tyrannosauroids (i.e., metacarpal III length <0.75 length of metacarpal II).
