Erfolgreiche Puzzle-Arbeit: Paläontologen präsentieren im Londoner Natural History Museum die bisher unbekannte Dinosaurierart Enigmacursor mollyborthwickae

Enigmacursor mollyborthwickae, a species of dinosaur new to science, has joined the residents of London’s Natural History museum.
The dinosaur would have roamed North America in the Late Jurassic, 145-150 million years ago - now its fossilised skeleton will reside in the Museum’s Earth Hall.
Museum experts have also carried out critical scientific research on the specimen, settling a century-long taxonomic tangle and defining this fossil as a new species to science.
Wind the clock back 145 to 150 million years, and Enigmacursor mollyborthwickae, standing at half a metre tall and a little over a metre long, would have been darting around the floodplains of the western United States in the shadows of giants like Diplodocus (such as Dippy) and Stegosaurus (like Sophie, who also resides in the Museum’s Earth Hall).
There are signs that this specimen was not fully grown: the top section of vertebrae (the neural arches), which form separately to the lower parts and fuse together as the animal ages, were not fully fused in place, suggesting Enigmacursor may have been quite young.
It would also have been a speedy runner, hence the latter part of its genus name, ‘cursor’. ‘Enigma’ relates to the mystery surrounding the taxonomic tangle that has been resolved today by new research published in the journal Royal Society Open Science, co-authored by Museum palaeontologists Prof. Susannah Maidment and Prof. Paul Barrett.
Prof. Susannah Maidment, co-lead author of the new study, comments: “The generous donation of this rare specimen has had quite unexpected scientific repercussions. By studying its anatomy in detail, we’ve been able to clarify this species’ evolutionary relationships, its taxonomy and the diversity of a previously poorly understood group of small dinosaurs.
“Getting taxonomy right is vital; it underpins everything we do as palaeontologists and if we get i *** Local Ca

Evolution der Vierbeiner: Forscher lassen 300 Millionen Jahre altes Fossil mithilfe Robotertechnik laufen / 160119 *** A giant lizard that walked the Earth around 300 million years ago has been recreated by scientists - using Hollywood style techniques.
The weird looking plant-eater was among the first animals to make its home on land, long before the dinosaurs.
Now it has been digitalised, animated and converted into a life-sized model called OroBOT.
The first study of its kind could lead to dinosaurs and Ice Age beasts including the woolly mammoth being brought back to life in a similar way.
Like humans Orobates pabsti is a tetrapod, sharing the same common ancestor as lizards, snakes, tortoises, crocodiles, birds and mammals.
The five foot long animal weighed about nine pounds. It had a long body and tail with short legs and a small skull. It has also been likened to a crocodile.
Corresponding author Dr John Nyakatura, a biomechanical engineer, said: "Being almost 300 million years old the extinct Orobates is a key candidate for understanding how land vertebrates evolved.
"It represents the lineage leading to modern amniotes, animals that became independent from water and then developed within eggs on land."
Orobates links amphibians on one hand with reptiles and mammals on the other, he said.
His international team used animation techniques similar to those used to create the trolls and orcs in The Lord of the Rings films - and the dragons in Game of Thrones.
The difference is Orobates really lived and its robotic version indicates prehistoric tetrapods learnt to walk more efficiently earlier than previously thought.
It suggests the development locomotion on land preceded the evolution and diversification of reptiles, birds and mammals.
The study published in Nature scanned an exquisitely preserved fossil of Orobates in 3-d to produce a digitlaised model of its skeleton.
