Sereno et al. 2026 https://doi.org/10.1126/ science.adx5486 CONCLUSION: The discovery of the tall-­ crested S. mirabilis sp. nov. in a riparian setting within an inland basin supports a lifestyle interpretation of a wading, shoreline predator with visual display an important aspect of its biology. At the end of the Cenomanian about 95 million years ago, an abrupt eustatic rise in sea level and the attendant climate change brought the spinosaurid radiation to an end. 00:00 Discovery 03:13 Introducing Spinosaurus mirabilis 07:50 Paul Sereno 10:25 Fossil Site Stories 24:07 Preperation 28:41 Reconstructing the Skull 33:09 Choices behind illustrations 40:35 Did Spinosaurus Have Lips? 46:40 Closing remarks
