Discovering Archeopteryx - discovering surprising signs of dinosaurs
The raptors are considered to be the first primitive species, but the study reveals that this species is not a bird-like shape as scientists expect.

Human population increased sharply at the end of the Stone Age
Genetic evidence shows that human populations began to increase in Africa at the end of the Stone Age, about 40,000 years ago.

Decay at the molecular level of genes regulating enamel in toothless animals
Biologists at the University of California have reported new evidence of evolutionary changes found in today's fossil and genome data.

Doubt about the connection between birds and dinosaurs
A new finding shows that it is unlikely that birds evolved from any known theropod dinosaurs.

Seals used to live on land
Canadian scientists have found the missing link in the evolution of seals and walruses.

The cause of animal evolution halts for two billion years
Scientists around the world have recreated the chemical structure changes under ancient oceans over a long geological period, between 0.5 and 2.5 billion years ago. They…

Scientists rewrite the evolutionary history of reptiles
A comprehensive analysis of the genetic relationship between snakes, lizards and other reptiles has produced a new genealogy diagram of this animal, a group of researche…
