Paleontology or palaeontology is the study of prehistoric life forms on Earth through the examination of plant and animal fossils . [1] This includes the study of body fossils, tracks ( ichnites ), burrows , cast-off parts, fossilised feces ( coprolites ), palynomorphs and chemical residues . Because humans have encountered fossils for millennia, paleontology has a long history both before and after becoming formalized as a science . This article records significant discoveries and events related to paleontology that occurred or were published in the year 1905.

Late Cretaceous (Lancian)

Has been considered a member of Triceratops , but recent work has indicated it deserved its own genus after all. In 2008 it was renamed Diceratus because Diceratops was preoccupied by a hymenopteran insect Foerster, 1868.

"Dynamosaurus" [7]

Same as Tyrannosaurus , this name was rejected because Tyrannosaurus was mentioned earlier in the paper.

Paleontology or palaeontology is the study of prehistoric life forms on Earth through the examination of plant and animal fossils. This includes the study of body fossils, tracks (ichnites), burrows, cast-off parts, fossilised feces (coprolites), palynomorphs and chemical residues. Because humans have encountered fossils for millennia, paleontology has a long history both before and after becoming formalized as a science. This article records significant discoveries and events related to paleontology that occurred or were published in the year 1994.
