Dinosaur of the day Limusaurus, a fascinating dinosaur that started out with over 40 teeth, but had their teeth completely replaced by a beak by the time they turned one.

In dinosaur news this week:

• A new Patagonian titanosaur, Titanomachya gimenezi, was named after an epic battle of the Greek gods
• The mamenchisaurid sauropod “Jingia” dongxingensis has been renamed to Jingiella dongxingensis
