Dinosaur of the day Saurornithoides, a troodontid from Mongolia named in 1924 by Osborn in the same paper as Velociraptor.
In dinosaur news this week:
- Paleontologists reviewed what it means to have a dome-head and to headbutt like a pachycephalosaurid (and other prehistoric animals)
- Mississippi has a new most complete dinosaur, but the species is still a mystery
- Histology can tell us if a fossil belonged to a dinosaur or another type of animals
This episode is brought to you by Brilliant, the app with thousands of bite-sized, interactive lessons on cutting-edge topics. Anyone interested in paleontology will particularly like their courses in chemistry, which underlie the fossilization process, as well as data analysis, used to model dinosaur populations.
