  11. <description>&lt;p&gt;An extinct reptile related to crocodiles that lived 212 million years ago in present day New Mexico has been named as a new species, &lt;em&gt;Vivaron haydeni&lt;/em&gt;, in a paper published this week by Virginia Tech&#039;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.geos.vt.edu/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Department of Geosciences&lt;/a&gt; researchers.&lt;/p&gt;

  36. <title>Genetics of African KhoeSan populations maps to Kalahari Desert geography</title>

  38. <description>&lt;p&gt;Geography and ecology are key factors that have influenced the genetic makeup of human groups in southern Africa, according to new research discussed in the journal &lt;i&gt;GENETICS&lt;/i&gt;, a publication of the Genetics Society of America. By investigating the ancestries of twenty-two KhoeSan groups, including new samples from the Nama and the &amp;#8800;Khomani, researchers conclude that the genetic clustering of southern African populations is closely tied to the ecogeography of the Kalahari Desert region.&lt;/p&gt;

  65. <description>&lt;p&gt;Scientists today announced the discovery of a new species of pterosaur from the Patagonia region of South America. The cranial remains were in an excellent state of preservation and belonged to a new species of pterosaur from the Early Jurassic. The researchers have named this new species &#039;&lt;i&gt;Allkauren koi&lt;/i&gt;&#039; from the native Tehuelche word &#039;all&#039; for &#039;brain&#039;, and &#039;karuen&#039; for &#039;ancient&#039;.&lt;/p&gt;

  101. <description>&lt;p&gt;When most people hear the word &quot;pollinator,&quot; they think of bees and butterflies. However, certain beetles are known to pollinate plants as well, and new fossil evidence indicates that they were doing so 20 million years ago.&lt;/p&gt;

  110. <description>&lt;p&gt;A Bosnian pine (&lt;i&gt;Pinus heldreichii&lt;/i&gt;) growing in the highlands of northern Greece has been dendrocronologically dated to be more than 1075 years old. This makes it currently the oldest known living tree in Europe. The millenium old pine was discovered by scientists from Stockholm University (Sweden), the University of Mainz (Germany) and the University of Arizona (USA).&lt;/p&gt;

  126. <title>High-tech imaging reveals precolonial Mexican manuscript hidden from view for 500 years</title>

  128. <description>&lt;p&gt;Researchers from the University of Oxford&#039;s Bodleian Libraries and from universities in the Netherlands have used high-tech imaging to uncover the details of a rare Mexican codex dating from before the colonization of the Americas. The newly revealed codex, or book, has been hidden from view for almost 500 years, concealed beneath a layer of plaster and chalk on the back of a later manuscript known as the Codex Selden, which is housed at the Bodleian Libraries. Scientists have used hyperspectral imaging to reveal pictographic scenes from this remarkable document and have published their findings in the &lt;i&gt;Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

  137. <description>&lt;p&gt;Paleontologists with the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture and the University of Washington have discovered a &lt;em&gt;Tyrannosaurus rex&lt;/em&gt;, including a very complete skull. The find, which paleontologists estimate to be about 20 percent of the animal, includes vertebrae, ribs, hips and lower jaw bones.&lt;/p&gt;

  146. <description>&lt;p&gt;Long ago, one great ocean flowed between North and South America. When the narrow Isthmus of Panama joined the continents about 3 million years ago, it also separated the Atlantic from the Pacific Ocean. If this took place millions of years earlier, as recently asserted by some, the implications for both land and sea life would be revolutionary. Aaron O&#039;Dea, staff scientist at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI), and colleagues writing in &lt;em&gt;Science Advances&lt;/em&gt; firmly set the date at 2.8 million years ago.&lt;/p&gt;

However, biologists recently found three newly dead specimens that hint at how the &quot;living fossil&quot; has evolved over the past 49 million years.&lt;/p&gt;

  173. <description>&lt;p&gt;For more than 120 years the Venus Table of the Dresden Codex -- an ancient Mayan book containing astronomical data -- has been of great interest to scholars around the world. The accuracy of its observations, especially the calculation of a kind of &#039;leap year&#039; in the Mayan Calendar, was deemed an impressive curiosity used primarily for astrology.&lt;/p&gt;

  191. <description>&lt;p&gt;A fossil that has been in the collection of the Smithsonian&#039;s National Museum of Natural History since it was discovered in 1951 is today helping scientists piece together the evolutionary history of whales and dolphins, including the origins of the endangered South Asian river dolphin.&lt;/p&gt;

  198. <title>Twenty-five little bones tell a puzzling story about early primate evolution</title>

  200. <description>&lt;p&gt;A cache of exquisitely preserved bones, found in a coal mine in the state of Gujarat, India, appear to be the most primitive primate bones yet discovered, according to an analysis led by researchers from The Johns Hopkins University and Des Moines University. Their assessment of the bones, belonging to ancient, rat-sized, tree-dwelling primates, bolsters the controversial idea that primates native to what is now India played an important role in the very early evolution of primates, mammals that include humans, apes and monkeys.&lt;/p&gt;
