The earliest-known dinosaur fossils date to roughly 230 million years ago, including Eoraptor and Herrerasaurus from Argentina, Saturnalia from southern Brazil and Mbiresaurus from Zimbabwe.

The divergent patterns of Permian–Triassic mass extinction (PTME) have been extensively documented in varying water depth settings. We here investigated fossil assemblages and sedimentary microfacies ...

I want to offer you a different lens through which to better understand the climatological and environmental crises that ...

The mystery of dinosaur origins has taken an unexpected turn toward the equator. While paleontologists have long searched ...

By assessing the fossil record and the dinosaur family tree, the researchers’ models suggest that the first dinosaurs evolved ...

We hope to have demonstrated that trying to compare or equate the end-Permian marine invertebrate mass extinction in terms of taxonomic diversity dynamics with the Permo-Triassic plant biotic crisis ...

These plants and animals died off at about the same time, during the end of the Permian period—around 252 million years ago—and the beginning of the Triassic Period. That’s how we know there was a ...

Dinosaurs evolved from more primitive reptiles in the aftermath of Earth's biggest mass-extinction event caused by extreme volcanism at the end of the Permian Period about 252 million years ago.

notably the mass extinction event at the end of the Permian period 252,000,000 years ago,’ European space officials said today. The region is far quieter – and colder – these days.
