Some recent items:

Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum announces find of nearly 3000 fossil remains in densely packed accumulation near Katsuyama city (Fukui Prefecture, Katsuyama), including bones of iguanodonts and fossils of turtles. The 25-meter square site may have been a bend in a river and comes from the Early Cretaceous Kitadani Formation. More discoveries are expected as excavation continues. Click on photos to enlarge.
