'Jurassic Parkette' – the prehistoric island ruled by dwarf dinosaurs

clipped from www.telegraph.co.uk Found: 'Jurassic Parkette' – the prehistoric island ruled by dwarf dinosaurs A prehistoric "lost world" ruled by miniature dinosaurs has been discovered by palaeontologists. The creatures lived on an island – a kind of pigmy Jurassic Park – and were up to eight times smaller than some of their mainland cousins. One of the island-dwelling dinosaurs, named Magyarosaurus, was little bigger than a horse, but was related to some of the largest creatures to ever walk the Earth – gigantic titanosaurs such as Argentinosaurus, which reached up to 100 feet long and weighed around 80 tons. Another of the dinosaurs was found to be a primitive dwarfed species similar to large duck-billed herbivores like Iguanodon, which could grow to be up to 10 feet long and weighed more than three tons. Fossils from the dwarf dinosaurs were found in what is now modern day Romania, in an area known as Hateg, which, 65 million years ago – when the creatures were living there – was an island.

The fossilized spiders, Eoplectreurys gertschi, are older than the only two other specimens known by around 120 million years. found at a site with fossilized salamanders, small primitive mammals, insects and water crustaceans. During the Jurassic era, the fossil bed was part of a lake in a volcanic region Spider fossils from this period are rare, because the arachnids’ soft bodies don’t preserve well.

Currently, the family has only been found living in California, Arizona, Mexico and Cuba. 165 million years ago

Dante stands at the edge of the world of damned souls and reads:

"Through me is the way into the woeful city; through me is the way into eternal woe; through me is the way among the lost people. Justice moved my lofty maker: the divine Power, the supreme Wisdom and the primal Love made me. Before me were no things created, unless eternal, and I eternal last. Leave every hope, ye who enter!"
